Thorpe Cloud

Evocative names these old stations on the Tissington Trail. Parsley Hay, Alsop-en-le-Dale and here is Thorpe Cloud, first station out of Ashbourne heading north. As at all the others on the line the wooden platforms and station buildings are long gone but a picnic area has been created at the site. View north towards Parsley Hay and Buxton showing a small under bridge that has survived to carry the trackbed cyclepath.
