Overview

Due to a necessary last minute change in arrangements today's 7.5 mile walk will start from the layby at St Michael's Church in Rossington and finish at The Styrrup pub (just round the corner) for drinks and Bob's (in)famous quiz. We walk along footpaths and lanes to the south of Doncaster passing Hayfield Lakes, the River Torne, Hatchell Wood and Mount Pleasant (but not necessarily in that order!).
