Hollinsclough is a small rural village in the county of Staffordshire in the English Midlands. It is within the Peak District National Park. ==Location and geography==
Hollinsclough is on the upper reaches of the River Dove, at one end of a level area between the Dove and the River Manifold, not far from their sources on the eastern side of Axe Edge Moor. Here the Manifold flows through moorland on sandstone and various gritstones, before a conspicuous change at Hulme End, about 6 miles downstream, when the underlying rock changes to limestone. For all its length, the Dove marks the border between Staffordshire and Derbyshire. Not far downstream from Hollinsclough the Dove enters the limestone valley that ends in the famous Dovedale. The Church of St Agnes, built as a Chapel of Ease in 1840〔Hollinsclough village web site (tour of the village )〕 when Hollinsclough was in the parish of Quornford, is now linked with the parish of Longnor, about 2 miles east.〔(Longnor Benefice Magazine )〕 The church has been abandoned for worship, and is now used as a residential centre for visitors to the Peak District.
