  • Help us work out the future of the Inglesport Café

    We've been trading since 1977 and next year will be our 50th anniversary.

    The café has been part of that for a long time, running quietly in the background for years, and we don't think it always gets the credit it deserves as a genuine community hub. ⁠But we need to be straight with you: the café is under real pressure, and we’re not sure of the best path forward.....

Masson Lees Quarry Clearup Day

As many of you know, Masson Lees Quarry was recently sold and bought by caver-friendly, climber-friendly landowners who are planning to add a carpark to assist with enjoyment of the quarry.

They have a facebook page, and they're relying on the community to support them through a gofundme.

They also recently shared that they're having a maintenance day to help look after the quarry on the 24th and 25th.

Given the significance of the land to cavers - and the entrances contained within the land, it'd be great to have a good caver presence there to help let them know the support for what they're doing.

Hi All,
We are planning another maintenance day at the quarry. We had a great group turn up and help out last time and would love to meet more of you down there again.
We’re looking for a few willing helpers to assist with grounds maintenance and vegetation management at Masson Lees Quarry on Sunday 24th & Monday 25th August. It’s mostly practical outdoor work – clearing paths to new routes, managing overgrowth, and helping keep the site accessible and safe. Please comment or message the page if you are interested.
🗓️
Date: 24th & 25th August
🕒
Time: 10am - 5pm
📍
Location: Masson Lees Quarry, Matlock
If you enjoy being outside and don’t mind getting your hands dirty, we’d love your help.
Bring gloves, sturdy footwear, and any tools you like using (we’ll have some to share too). Some drinks and snacks will be provided – maybe even a campfire lunch if the weather’s kind.
Please drop us a message if you're keen to come along or have any questions.
Thank you all for your continued support of the land.
We hope to see you down there soon.
