A pub in the High Peak has launched a new annual pork pie tasting competition to raise funds for Buxton Mountain Rescue.

The Old Cell Ale Bar in Chapel-en-le-Frith had a new way to bring people together and launched a pork pie tasting contest.

Jane Boothman from the bar said: “The first annual Old Cell pork pie tasting competition went fantastically.

"We told customers to bring a pork pie and we would share them and customers could judge them. We had 14 different pies. The winner was Harrington’s of hathersage. It was a fantastic event. It was so interesting.

“Out of 14 pork pies, the winner was Harrington’s butchers of Hathersage.”
