Just north of Rowsley, Lees Moor is the high ground between the Wye and Derwent valleys, with Haddon Hall below it to the west and Chatsworth Park beyond its northern slopes. The top is flat and wooded, and the highest point is unmarked ground beside a wall inside Lees Moor Wood. The summit is on private land.
