A Place Apart

In a remote corner of the Derbyshire moors, overlooked by bleak and windswept Kinder Scout, time has stood still for over ten thousand years.

By an inexplicable Time/Space Warp, this area within an area, frozen in time, but expanded in space, exists.

Undetected by the modern world, this magical place, this Place Apart, teems with life; life that must fight to survive. Here, since time immemorial, predators have reigned, unchallenged. Of all the predators that range these vast tracts of beautiful, cruel and unforgiving wilderness, the Wolf reigns supreme.

In this place of peace and tranquillity, of danger, and often sudden death,

life is lived, or lost, by Nature`s rules.

Here, at least, conservation is not , and never will be, ,an issue. Technology is meaningless, having no point of reference in a world that can never change

Nothing can be brought here, or taken away. For those that discover the way here, it can be a Paradise. Or it can be the death of you, for here, danger is never far away.

This, then, is A Place Apart.

Come here and sing your songs, recite your poetry. Wander the silent spaces,

fill your lungs with the cleanest, freshest air on the planet. Always be aware, though, that you could be at risk.

I come here often. To me it is a place of beauty, a place of escape.

I am never in danger.

I am among friends.
