Why tow up or down Sutton Bank? It says caravans are prohibited, so why do it? The definition of 'prohibited' is 'to forbid by authority'.

We've driven it with the car but wouldn't want to take our van on it. So we don't.

Now Now all- didn't want to cause any arguments between members- advice is always gladly accepted, and in my case I am please to see that one gent has told us all of other routes that are towable and one that is not, you may argue the point but if sinage is there then this must be adhered to--it is a law thing.  This route was just because if we want to head over to the Buxton are and Derbyshire, we have to go through Hazel Grove and that is a --well pain in the butt- especially when lorry delivery drivers just decide- right i will stop here and deliver..........aarrgghh.....!!

Cheers everyone but stop arguing. many thanks Maureen-- Garys wife- the tower of the family.

I came that way on Friday evening. I had a lovely drive back from Sheffield via Castleton, Dove Holes, Buxton, and the Cat and Fiddle, and knocked over an hour off the journey there!

It took me 2 hours and forty minutes on the way there and just 90 minutes on the way back. 2 1/2 hours to Nottingham last month... I'm going cross country from now on. Sheesh!!!
