The Old Sheep Pens on Howden Moor, Upper Derwent Valley, Derbyshire. Sometimes idyllic, but for much of the time rather bleak. The numbers of sheep that graze these moors has been drastically reduced in recent years. It took sometime for the penny to drop that these moors were being over grazed. Now a tree planting scheme is underway on these moorland slopes.
