Mother Hill

A pleasant walk up Man Tor today in Derbyshire.
Mam Tor is a 517 m hill near Castleton in the High Peak of Derbyshire, England. Its name means "mother hill", so called because frequent landslips on its eastern face have resulted in a multitude of "mini-hills" beneath it.These landslips, which are caused by unstable lower layers of shale, also give the hill its alternative name of Shivering Mountain
