Welcome to Horwich End

Horwich End is a small village located in the High Peak district of Derbyshire, England. The village is situated on the banks of the River Goyt and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. The village is known for its picturesque views and is a popular destination for tourists who come to enjoy the natural beauty of the area.

Horwich End has a rich history that dates back to the 17th century. The village was once a thriving industrial center, with several mills and factories operating in the area. Today, many of these buildings have been converted into residential properties, and the village has a quiet, peaceful atmosphere. Despite its small size, Horwich End has a strong sense of community, and residents take pride in their village and its heritage.

One of the most popular attractions in Horwich End is the Goyt Valley, which is located just outside the village. The valley is home to a variety of wildlife, including deer, foxes, and birds of prey. Visitors can enjoy a leisurely walk along the riverbank, or explore the many footpaths and trails that wind through the surrounding hills and forests. Whether you're looking for a peaceful retreat or an outdoor adventure, Horwich End has something to offer everyone.
