Tintwistle

Tintwistle is a village in Cheshire, in the high hills in very north-eastern part of that county, its parish being the easternmost in Cheshire and forming a separation between Derbyshire to the south and Yorkshire to the north.

Tintwistle lies at the lower end of Longdendale, just north of Glossop in Derbyshire. It is divided in two by the busy A628 road. The older part of the village sits on the northern side of the road, set back on the valley side.

Some buildings in the old part of the village are said to date back to the 16th century, including the Bull's Head. public house. (Read more)
