Blacka Moor

Blacka Moor is a small upland area in the Peak District of central and northern England, lying between the Longshaw estate near Hathersage and Totley in Sheffield.[1] The land was owned and donated by John George Graves upon his death in 1945 and is now known as the Blacka Moor Nature Reserve. The moor is part of the Peak District, and is accessed via the A625 road at Fox House.[2][3] The site is managed by the Wildlife Trust for Sheffield and Rotherham.
