Lots of walking stuff

Codnor Castle 25/10/21

 This was something I have been meaning to do for ages. It is a relatively local walk and we have lived in the area for 30 years, so about time ....

The start point was Codnor Park Resevoir, and followed the route below anticlockwise. Apart from the road section through Codnor Park village (approx 1/2 mile), the rest of the route was on good tracks and a canal tow path.


The pics were taken on my phone and are not in sequence.

The closest thta you can get to Codnor Castle is about 50 yards as it is fenced off by English Heritage.

Really glad to have finally done this walk. It isn't far to drive to the start point and at 4 miles makes it a comfortable 1/2 day walk including driving. This will definitely be a regular,
