This vein is known under different titles as it ranges from the Sir William Hill to the east to beyond Tideslow Top to the west. At High Rake shaft it is called the High Rake, but immediately west of the old Tideswell to Castleton road it is known as Tideslow Rake and beyond Tideslow Top as White Rake. Eastward beyond Windmill it is known as the Hucklow Edge Vein. The foundations of the mine buildings at High Rake have been excavated by the Peak District Historical Mines Society.

Bradwell Moor is a moorland hill above the village of Bradwell, Derbyshire in the Peak District. The summit is 471 metres (1,545 ft) above sea level.Batham Gate Roman road ran across the moor, from nearby Navio Roman fort (at Brough-on-Noe) to Aquae Arnemetiae (Buxton). Batham Gate is Old English for "road to the bath town". Clement Lane follows the original route across the moor. The section of Batham Gate road east of Peak Forest is a protected Scheduled Monument.There are numerous historic lead mines around the moor which are protected Scheduled Monuments. Lead mining in the area dates back to the Bronze Age, with larger scale production in Roman times. Cop Rake and Moss Rake lead mines (include the sites of Starvehouse Mine, New York Mine and Cop Mine) have been extracting lead-bearing ore from veins near the surface since at least the 13th century (when it was recorded as Wardlow Cop).Hope Quarry is a large limestone quarry that covers the north-east side of the moor between Castleton and Bradwell. The quarry is now operated by Breedon. In 1990 a Mesolithic stone working site was discovered by The Trent & Peak Archaeological Trust where Bradwell Moor Barn once stood, before the land was excavated by the quarry operator at the time (Blue Circle).The highest point of the Limestone Way long-distance footpath is at 461 metres (1,512 ft) where it crosses Bradwell Moor, slightly west of its summit.

The Grey Ditch, near Bradwell in the Peak District is a linear earthwork of post-Roman date. The dyke is built at right angles to the Batham Gate, a Roman road which runs between the Roman fort at Brough in Derbyshire (the Roman name was Navio) and the Roman settlement at Buxton. When first recorded the length of the Grey Ditch was about 1.7 km long but it now has substantial gaps, caused by ploughing and by development. It currently survives as four sections. The monument runs across the contours and runs along the division between the White Peak and the Dark Peak. The ditch lies on the side towards the northeast. The bank seems to have a single phase while the ditch showed evidence of up to five re-cuts. Importantly the bank lay over a plough soil, which contained sherds of Roman-British pottery. B H O'Neil suggested the Grey Ditch once went as far as the slopes of Mam Tor but there is no firm evidence for this. This area is the boundary between the Pecsaetna (people of the Peak district) and the kingdom of Mercia and the Grey Ditch could be a boundary marker between these groups but again there is no evidence for this.
