Whaley Bridge is a small town and civil parish in the High Peak district of Derbyshire, England, situated on the River Goyt. Whaley Bridge is approximately 16 miles (26 km) south of Manchester, 7 miles (11 km) north of Buxton, 9 miles (14 km) east of Macclesfield and 28 miles (45 km) west of Sheffield, and had a population of 6,455 at the 2011 census. This includes the village of Furness Vale, which falls within the boundaries of Whaley Bridge. Other districts of 'Whaley', as it is known locally, include Horwich End (grid reference SK006806), Bridgemont (SK011825), Fernilee (SK017784) Stoneheads and Taxal.
There is evidence of prehistoric activity in the area, including early Bronze Age standing stones,burial sites and the remains of a stone circle. A bronze-age axe head was discovered in 2005. There has long been speculation that the 'Roosdyche', a complex of banks and ditches on the eastern side of the town, is of prehistoric human origin, but investigations in 1962 concluded that it was formed by glacial meltwater.

Whaley is a small village in Derbyshire, England, located one mile from Whaley Thorns, 1½ miles from Elmton, 1½ miles from Langwith and 2½ miles from Bolsover.
The village has a pub, garage and a former watermill, now a home, of which the large mill pond still survives.
Set in arable farmland, the village was a farming settlement, and remains so to this day with several farming families living in the village. The Diocese of Derby archives record that there was an ancient chapel in the village, but no traces of that remain. A school, known as St Mary's Mission, and school house were built in the 1860s but both these are now residential.
There are three pre-historic rock shelters behind the former school, on Magg Lane and opposite the pub, the Black Horse. These are linked to the Creswell Crags.
Scarcliffe Park, an area of woodland to the south end of the village, has Bronze Age and Roman remains. It is surrounded by a Pale ditch.
A bridge is a structure built to span physical obstacles without closing the way underneath such as a body of water, valley, or road, for the purpose of providing passage over the obstacle. There are many different designs that each serve a particular purpose and apply to different situations. Designs of bridges vary depending on the function of the bridge, the nature of the terrain where the bridge is constructed and anchored, the material used to make it, and the funds available to build it.
The Oxford English Dictionary traces the origin of the word bridge to an Old English word brycg, of the same meaning. The word can be traced directly back to Proto-Indo-European *bʰrēw-. The word for the card game of the same name has a different origin.
The first bridges made by humans were probably spans of cut wooden logs or planks and eventually stones, using a simple support and crossbeam arrangement. Some early Americans used trees or bamboo poles to cross small caverns or wells to get from one place to another. A common form of lashing sticks, logs, and deciduous branches together involved the use of long reeds or other harvested fibers woven together to form a connective rope capable of binding and holding together the materials used in early bridges.

The Haunted Horton Grand and The Whaley House San Diego
To everyone who made my experience in San Diego the best time of my life. As a traveler I've never really had a place to call home but thanks to you guys, the lovely beaches, weather, and the ITH Hostel I now do. You will always be life long friends no matter how far away we all are. "Having friends from all parts of the world makes you feel like your heart is a cookie. Breaking it off and sending it to Brazil, Australia, Germany, Spain, etc. It really hurts but in the end you still wouldn't want it any other way. Thank you guys. You're amazing people. Keep traveling.
A nice pleasant day's cruising through the last two locks before Fairfield Junction and then on to Dukinfield Junction where we join the Peak Forest Canal. We cruise on to Hyde where we stop for the night and get a few grocery items for the last two days of our trip. March 20, 2016

Surrey girls like tight jeans
Right up tight against their skin
Take you home to the dark
And show you what's in
With glasses bigger than her face
She's off to get her wotsit waxed
Find that Gucci bag she wanted
From Harvey Nicks
Cause she's only thinking about number one again
But she won't listen cause her Samsung is ringing
Hold on
Surrey girls like their boys
With lots of cash to buy them toys
A Porsche or a Merc will do
Turn heads with the noise
Sprayed on tan and new lip gloss
She is off to meet the boss
Three little kids he's got
But she just don't care
Cause she's only thinking about number one again
But she won't listen cause her Samsung is ringing
Hold on
Woolley Bridge Woolley Bridge
Where it came clear to me
You need love you need love
But you're wasting time
Oh but now Surrey girl
I can really show you how
Give you love give you love
And I'll waste your time
In her time she's learnt some tricks
Fourty licks and bamboo sticks
She is queen here right now
Boy you'll be numb
That figure ain't just by luck
Atkins Diet nip and tuck
Hours on the treadmill
And yes she gives a good fuck
Cause she's only thinking about number one again
But she won't listen cause her Samsung is ringing
Hold on
Woolley Bridge Woolley Bridge
Where it came clear to me
You need love you need love
But you're wasting time
Oh but now Surrey girl
I can really show you how
Give you love give you love
And I'll waste your time
And now it seems that I have fallen for a Surrey girl
And she has promised she won't leave me for another girl
And now at night we lie and hold each other really tight
And then we promised yeah that we would be the only ones
The only ones
Woolley Bridge Woolley Bridge
Where it came clear to me
You need love you need love
But you're wasting time
Oh but now Surrey girl
I can really show you how
Give you love give you love
