The Windgather Rocks is a gritstone crag on the Derbyshire-Cheshire border in England. It is in the Peak District National Park and is a popular site for learning the rudiments of rock climbing. As the name suggests the area is exposed to the prevailing winds, being 400m (1300 feet) above sea level.
