Stonechats, yes. Whinchats have a much more prominent supercilium.

Yup, Stonechats. There's probably Whinchats across the road at Burbage Moor though if you need one

Padley Gorge is still in Derbyshire as far as I know. Unless those pesky Yorkshiremen are trying to claim it as their own

Agree Stonechat, though pics 2-3 show a surprisingly pale individual (so I'm not surprised at the potential for confusion with Whinchat).
