Upper Hulme information


Approaching Upper Hulme

Upper Hulme is a hamlet in North Staffordshire, between the historic market town of Leek and the spa town of Buxton. It is clustered around a redundant mill and is located within the upper reaches of the River Churnet. The Mill was recently restored, with a working water wheel, but no further information on its future is known. It can be accessed by one of the many footpaths through the hamlet. The Peak District Boundary Walk runs through the village.[1]

The hamlet is at the edge of the Peak District and is home to The Roaches is, therefore, very popular with ramblers, climbers, and hikers alike. The A53 road offers access to Tittesworth Reservoir in the south and Ramshaw Rocks in the North, making the hamlet popular for walking holidays. There is a campsite, bunkhouse accommodation, and holiday cottages available.

The hamlet is popular with wildlife enthusiasts due to Wallaby's having been sighted on the Roaches and the successful annual breeding of peregrine falcons. In Peregrine breeding season, a 'bird watching post' is set up at the foot of Hen Cloud, and park rangers are on hand to offer advice and information on the bird. At this time of year, some access is restricted.

The hamlet has two local pubs; Ye Olde Rock Inn and The Winking Man. It is also home to popular Tea Rooms. The main industry of the hamlet ,is agricultural. An old Dye Work has been transformed into offices and workshops upon the hamlet's entrance.

Until 2005, the British Army used the area as a training area. The Ministry of Defence has vacated that space, and is currently for sale.
