Upper Elkstone

England

Upper Elkstone perches on the Staffordshire Moorlands edge, reached via the A515 from Ashbourne or through Buxton's scenic route. The village sits at 300 metres elevation where limestone plateau meets gritstone moors. Over 40 EV charging points operate nearby in Buxton and Ashbourne. The settlement's defining characteristic remains its network of centuries-old dry stone walls, creating distinctive field patterns across the surrounding moorland landscape using traditional Peak District limestone construction methods.
