The Don Whillans Hut

Rockhall Cottage was built in 1862 as the gamekeepers cottage for the Roaches area of the Swythamley Estate. In 1990 the derelict and primitive Rockhall Cottage became vacant as the Peak Park Board re-housed the self-styled and legendary ‘King of the Roaches’ Doug Moller, the Peak Park Board then approached the B.M.C. to convert the cottage into a climbing hut.
