Lover's Leap

In the rugged embrace of Stoney Middleton Dale, where Derbyshire’s cliffs stand sentinel over a village carved from stone, the summer of 1760 whispers a story of heartbreak and defiance. Hannah Baddeley, her heart shattered by a lover’s betrayal, wanders the moonless paths, drawn to an 80-foot precipice that promises release from her pain. Yet as she leaps into the abyss, the winds and thorns of the dale conspire to cradle her fall, weaving her despair into a legend that names the cliff Lover’s Leap—a testament to the fragile line between ruin and redemption.
