We helped prevent a potential moorland fire on Friday evening.

It came to our notice that there was a fire on Baslow Edge which was visible to a local.

As we arrived on the scene we were pleased to see the crew from the Snake Pass wildfire were just arriving.

They had just finished damping down the wildfire and returning to base when the incident at Baslow was called in.

When we arrived at the scene it turned out to be a group of wild campers who had started up a charcoal BBQ.

The fire crew immediately extinguished the fire and moved them on. We would like to thank the 3 guys from Matlock fire station for their expedient response.

There's some fabulous flora & fauna to be found on the bankside at Ladybower at the moment.

It was just a shame that the day was punctuated by a wildfire response unit attending the moors up there. I hope that the responders are safe & the damage is limited.

Before you visit the Highland cows on Baslow Edge have a listen to the farmer who owns them.

He appeared on Radio Derby this morning to comment on the recent country wide craze to hug and selfie with Highland cows.

I've been involved with these animals for 12 years, they are like an extended family and it saddens me to hear what their future on the moor is going to be.

You can listen to the interview on Radio Derby Becky Measures show at around 7.06am today. 🐂💕

This is a problem right across the country now.

The national park warned people against getting too close, feeding, or taking selfies with cows.
