Overview

Out of the village and head N.E. to Fox Hill. On good tracks past the Golf Club and along the crest of the Leake Hills to Cuckoo Bush, then down to Gotham. We follow the line of the old railway track from the former Gotham Quarries to where it joins the old Great Central Railway. Turning south with good views, we head back to E. Leake.
Notes: toilets at the start next to the Fire Station.
Two hills and two stiles.
