Rowarth is a hamlet about 2.5 miles (4 km) north of New Mills in the High Peak borough of Derbyshire, England. It is on the edge of the Peak District, in the hills between New Mills and Marple Bridge, within the parish boundary of New Mills.[1]
The Little Mill Inn in Rowarth is a pub and restaurant in a former candlewick mill,[2] with a waterwheel in the adjacent stream. Until 2023, it had a retired Brighton Belle Pullman railway coach which was once used as dining and guest accommodation.[3]
Geography
[edit | edit source]The hamlet is only accessible by car on one road, and is most commonly used by walkers who are going to nearby Lantern Pike and Kinder Scout.
The Peak District Boundary Walk runs through the village.[4]
