Overlooking his domain from Ramshaw Rocks
F8 & 35m 1/80s ISO 100 Info The Winking Man is a rock formation about 10ft in height that overlooks the Leek to Buxton road, it resembles a man's face due to the fact that it looks like a mans head with a forehead, nose, mouth and chin. A traveller in the past and even today as he travels along the A53 which is built upon a Roman road would have been aware of the face, and as they would have passed, so would their viewing angle have changed which would have resulted in the eye appearing to wink! |
