V kind of both you and @dammit but I’m in Sheffield’s slightly less famous Sheffield, so probably a bit of a journey for it.

Riding in the peaks is different to riding in Surrey. I'd be tempted towards Dammit's advice of the rowdyer end of trail - so maybe the Murmur or the Jeht.
I'm up visiting a friend as I type this, and we went for a loop at Lady Cannings (flow trail) but then popped off a loop round Blackamore and the Devils Elbow. The rocks are real through there - so 140mm rear would be closer to ideal I think. I survived on the hardtail, but keeping up with my mate on his Kona Process somethingorother was not happening.
Echoing Dammit, you're welcome to have spin on my Flaremax if large is about the right size for you. Also London based and in Surrey every so often
