Tegg's Nose Country Park 10am

Tegg’s Nose Country Park is located close to Macclesfield in Cheshire on the western edge of the Peak District National Park, and is owned and managed by Cheshire County Council. It is a popular area for walking and attracts visitors from the local area and beyond who come to the park to enjoy the stunning views of the park and across the Cheshire plain, as well as learn more about the history of the area.

Views from Tegg’s Nose overlook nearby Macclesfield Forest and across to the summit of Shutlingsloe, which is the second highest point in Cheshire, as well as the Telecoms Tower on Sutton Common and the Macclesfield Canal. On clear days you can also see as far as the Welsh Hills and Liverpool in the west across the Cheshire plain.

From the Tegg’s Nose summmit at a height of 380m or 1246ft there are views over the two reservoirs in the Country Park which are Bottoms Reservoir built in 1850, and the smaller Teggs Nose Reservoir constructed slightly later in 1871. The two reservoirs were used to regulate the water supply to factories in nearby Langley Village.
