Figure 1a

An OS-style topographic map extract of the Hope Valley area in the Peak District. Point X is located in the north-west on high ground. Point Z is located in the south-east. A straight line connects Point X and Point Z. Along this line in the valley bottom is the settlement of Hope, which is marked with the letter W. Other nearby settlements labeled on the map are Castleton to the west and Aston to the north-east.

Figure 1b

A cross-section profile graph from Point X to Point Z. The y-axis shows height above sea level in metres ranging from 150m to 400m. The profile line starts at 380m at Point X, dips to a valley floor at 180m, and rises to 320m at Point Z. At the lowest part of the profile (180m), there is a label pointing to 'Settlement W'.

Using Figure 1a and Figure 1b, identify the settlement at W .
