Lud’s Church 🥾A place full of history, myths and legends! What will this enchanting chasm have your mind wondering?
Close to the Roaches in Leek, a 10min drive from the cottage, following a woodland path hides an 18 metre deep chasm created in the Roaches’ gritstone, caused by a giant landslip, which over the ages has been covered from top to bottom in vibrant green moss.
In the Fifteenth Century it was used as a secret place for worship for people who would have otherwise been prosecuted. The people using this deep secret chasm as a church were the Lollards, followers of the early church reformer and so-called ‘heretic’, John Wycliffe.
Legend also says that Robin Hood and Friar Tuck are reputed to have stayed in the cleft whilst hiding from the authorities.💰
A couple of fantastic walking routes available, a 7 mile or a 10 mile which includes Lud’s Church 🤩
The Roaches is always on the top of our list when guests ask for walking recommendations🥾
