Hamlet in Derbyshire, England

**Longcliffe** is a crossroads [hamlet](/source/Hamlet_(place)) in the English county of [Derbyshire](/source/Derbyshire).

It lies on the [B5056 road](/source/B5056_road) where it is crossed by the [Brassington](/source/Brassington)-[Elton](/source/Elton%2C_Derbyshire) road. The [Midshires Way](/source/Midshires_Way) long-distance footpath and the [Peak District Boundary Walk](/source/Peak_District_Boundary_Walk) skirt the same route south and west of Longcliffe.[1][2]

Longcliffe is close to Hoe Grange Quarry, the first Butterfly Reserve in Derbyshire. The company relinquished permitted reserves within Hoe Grange quarry in order to promote the site's wildlife. The reserve is managed by the [Derbyshire Wildlife Trust](/source/Derbyshire_Wildlife_Trust).[3][4][5][6]
