Year 9 Geography - case study of a popular destination in the United Kingdom

3rd November 2023

Year 9 students discover The Peak District in Geography.

In the past two weeks, we have delved into the fascinating world of the Peak District, a remarkable national park situated in central England. The Peak District is celebrated for its natural landscapes. Encompassing rolling hills, limestone dales and ancient woodlands. One can engage in a myriad of activities including, hiking, mountain biking and rock climbing, making it a haven for outdoor enthusiasts.

We have discussed how The Peak District has seen several conflicts and disputes over the years, primarily centred around various competing interests related to land use, conservation, and access.

We also looked at a case study of the Castleton village, a typical ‘honeypot’ destination nestled within the scenic Peak District. Renowned for its captivating charm, this picturesque village attracts tourists like bees to honey. Its allure lies in the stunning natural surrounding providing ample opportunities for exploration and adventure.
