Description:Ramshaw Rocks are located at the eastern end of The Roaches. This photograph shows the Leek-Buxton Road looking towards Buxton at the top of Upperhulme Bank. The piece of rock sticking out, directly above the left-hand chimney of the house in the distance is the outcrop known as the "Winking Man". It is so called because it has a hole in it, which can be seen as you drive towards Buxton.
