A walker stands perilously close to the edge, to take a photograph, of a huge sinkhole that has opened up swallowing a dry stone wall and some of the verge near Sparrowpit in the Derbyshire Peak District. It is thought that an underground lead mine shaft has collapsed following weeks of wet  weather. The road between The Wanted Inn and Castleton is currently closed and engineers say it will take until March 2015 to be repaired.<br />
