Portal:Peak District
The Peak District upland area in England , most of which lies in northern Derbyshire but also includes parts of Cheshire , Greater Manchester , Staffordshire and Yorkshire .
An area of great diversity, it is split into the northern Dark Peak , where most of the moorland is found and whose geology is gritstone , and the southern White Peak , where most of the population lives and whose geology is mainly limestone .
The Peak District National Park became the first national park in the United Kingdom in 1951. With its proximity to the cities of Manchester and Sheffield and easy access by road and rail, it attracts millions of visitors every year.
Standing on the east bank of the River Derwent , Chatsworth looks across to the low hills that divide the Derwent and Wye valleys. The house, set in expansive parkland and backed by wooded, rocky hills rising to heather moorland, contains a unique collection of priceless paintings, furniture, Old Master drawings, neoclassical sculptures , books and other artefacts. Chatsworth has been selected as the United Kingdom's favourite country house several times.
