The village of Delph is located on the Yorkshire/Lancashire border and has barely changed from its 19th century hey-day, when its mills were at the heart of a thriving community. Today it remains the start for walks up the Castleshaw Valley to the Roman Fort, one of a series built on the Roman military road from Chester to York.
