Derby - Mackworth - Quardon - Darley Abbey - Derby 15 Oct 2021

This was a brilliant PS to the  Derwent Valley Way Walk I did the week before. 

This was with Ben and was a repeat of a walk we did in 2007.









So, out of Derby along Bonny Prince Charlie Way and back in along the Heritage Way from the A38, via Mackworth village, Quardon, Allestree, and Darley Abbey.

A terrific walk. approx 10 miles. Thank you Ben
