Manifold Way
- See main article: Manifold Way
The Manifold Way is an 8-mile (13 km) long-distance footpath from Hulme End to Waterhouses, along the former route of the narrow gauge (2' 6") Leek and Manifold Valley Light Railway which operated between 1904 and 1934. Opened in July 1937 after the LMS handed over the trackbed to Staffordshire County Council, it is tarmacked throughout.
The Manifold Valley Visitor Centre is housed in Hulme End Station, which also has a model of the railway.
