A Sheep Farm in the Peak District. A stone farmhouse sits in a valley at the base of steep mint green-covered hills criss-crossed by stone walls. This landscape, now a national park, housed sheep farms like this one that provided the wool for England's textile mills. (The tiny white dots scattered about the hills are sheep.)
