Entrance of Streaks Pot, Top Entrance

Access

A small mined entrance at the base of a low cliff, close to the highest cliff line, east of Streaks Footpath.

No known access restrictions. Obvious parking spots close to base of crags and in lay-bys in the dale and next to electricity sub-station at foot of Eyam Dale. DO NOT BLOCK the sub-station entrance. Take care, as area is notorious for thefts from parked vehicles.
