Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Rookhope village The lead mining community of Rookhope took its name from the valley and grew up from the originally separate settlements of Boltsburn and Stotsfield. The history of mining in this area is given in http://www.pastperfect.org.uk/sites/oldrookhope/index.html
The poet WH Auden was inspired by the decaying industrial heritage in this area. In a letter to Lord Byron (1937) he states: "Tramlines and slagheaps, pieces of machinery. That was, and still is, my ideal scenery." |
