Alderley Edge is a magical place worth a visit at any time of the year. Full of natural beauty in its woods and rocks, it has much to explore of historical interest too. Sadly King Arthur, by legend asleep deep inside the hill, still couldn’t be found despite exploring the cave!

King Arthur and his knights are by legend sleeping inside the hill. We had a good look!
