Welcome to a community-led project to create the first digital history map of Bugsworth Basin (or Buxworth) and our surrounding village. We built this resource to help hikers canal lovers visitors holiday makers and local historians find their way around the basin’s unique landmarks.

From the Peak Forest Canal terminus to the Lime Kilns and Wharf ruins, we’ve tried to capture the stories and tramways that make the High Peak’s industrial heritage so special.

This map is a work in progress and a real labor of love. Whether you’re here for a guided walk or curious about narrowboat history, we hope this guide helps you enjoy your time at this Scheduled Ancient Monument.
