It's probably just over a mile downhill

Yes, it's at least a mile, and it's definitely down hill -- which means it's uphill on the way back!

It's a fair walk. Unless you just go to the trading post and eat white bread and icecream Lovely spot to moor though.

Or eat in the Boar's Head, of course.

 

There is a regular bus service into town from just opposite the BH.

The UPF is a bit shallow in places but has many merits. Buxworth is worth some exploration and a bit of respect showing to those who have resulted in its restoration and rebirth. Enjoy
