Valley in Cheshire

Far Harehill Clough

In Which Myriad? I've wanted to visit this spot for a while. It's where the four Myriads SD, SE, SJ and SK meet. Several people have obviously been here before as there's a geocache here. We signed the visitor book in the box - the last person to have visited it before us today was on 31st. July 2021! Pedantically, according to my GPS, the box position was about a metre too far north, but we left it where we found it!

SE from its South West Extremity The photo was taken just a couple of metres away from the SD, SE, SJ & SK intersection. The meeting of the myriads had a geocache box in it and we signed the visitors' record book to prove we'd been there! According to my GPS, the box was a metre too far north on my 21 satellite fix, but of course, that doesn't really matter! Luckily, the intersection was accessible as, just to the east of here, was a new and substantial wire fence with double barbed wire on its top which would have been impossible to climb over! There was evidence of a former fence as its burnt wooden posts were still in situ - presumably from a moorland fire.

Old Boundary Marker on Slatepit Moor Boundary Marker against a wire fence beside Shire Clough on Slatepit Moor, near Carrbrook. On the former boundary of Staley and Tintwistle townships in Mottram parish in Cheshire, both being parishes from 1866. From 1894 Stalybridge parish in Cheshire and Mossley parish in Lancashire. From 1974 entirely in Tameside. Without an inscription its function and date is hard to decide. Milestone Society National ID: CH_STAMOS01bm
