There should be a large population in the northern Peak District. However, the area is dominated by shooting estates.

I'll let you decide the reason for the lack of peregrines and other birds of prey.

Indeed!!

Birds of prey in that area, where I frequently walk have really gone down the last 5 or so years.

Thanks for the link, fore. I already follow that site on Facebook. I gather that a golden eagle was found poisoned on a shooting estate in Scotland, this week 😭
