White Nancy

Highlight • Monument

White Nancy is a famous landmark on Kerridge Hill which is visible for miles around. The Grade II-listed structure was built in 1815 as a summer house for the Gaskell family, who lived below the hill at Ingersley Hall. It is thought that it was built to commemorate the Battle of Waterloo. White Nancy affords fine views of the mill town of Bollington, a place famous for spinning and weaving in days gone by.

Tegg's Nose Country Park Visitor Centre provides parking (pay and display), The Nose Cafe for an after hike brew, facilities, bike racks, information about the area and picnic tables. It's the obvious place to begin an adventure to the 1,214-foot (370 m) top of Tegg's Nose. The views from the summit are splendid, with the Cheshire Plain and Macclesfield Forest both strutting their stuff.

Tegg's Nose Quarry

Highlight • Natural Monument

Tegg’s Nose Country Park is an old mining area and hill just east of Macclesfield. It incorporates Tegg’s Nose, a hill with a height of 1,250 feet (380 m), and is the highpoint of the local area with several good viewpoints. The hill was historically mined for millstone grit from the 16th to the mid-20th century. Now disused, there is still a fine collection of old quarrying equipment available on display within the park. It is used for a wide range of recreational activities, and there is a visitors' centre, car park, and toilets just off Buxton.

Tegg's Nose viewpoint

Highlight • Summit

From the 1,214 foot (370 m) summit of Tegg’s Nose you get breathtaking views over Macclesfield Forest, the summit of Shutlingsloe, the Telecoms Tower on Sutton Common, the Macclesfield Canal, and beyond. In clear conditions, views stretch all the way across the Cheshire plain to Liverpool and the Welsh Hills. Within the country park, there is evidence of human activity since the Bronze Age.

Tegg’s Nose has a pretty broad summit top. Here on the southern part of the nose is a good view point that has a stunning vantage point that overlooks Teggsnose and Bottoms Reservoirs. The surrounding woodlands and the lush green patchwork quilt of fields along with the two reservoirs make this a picture postcard scene.

This is a small but impressive waterfall on the River Dean. It is in a beautiful setting at the lower end of Clough Pool. It has a certain amount of man-made influence, as the top of it appears to be built on to a natural waterfall to create the mill pond above it. It was used by Ingersley Clough Mill back in the nineteenth century. This is simply a delightful scenic spot.
