Cat and Fiddle Inn

The Cat and Fiddle Inn is a former public house in the English Peak District, close to the border between Cheshire and Derbyshire.

It sits on the A537 road from Macclesfield to Buxton, which runs across a high and remote area of moorland.

The building is some 1,689 feet (515 m) above sea level, and it was the second-highest public house in Britain before it closed in 2015 (the Tan Hill Inn in Yorkshire is slightly higher).

[1] It was for many years the final checkpoint of the Four Inns Walk, an annual fell race organised by the Scout Association.

[4] A crowdfunding appeal raised over £50,000 towards the restoration of the building,[1] and it reopened in the summer of 2020 as a shop and bar selling Forest Distillery products.
