Overview

We visit an often overlooked area of Nottinghamshire with this short walk that packs in a lot of variety. Starting from Linby will head past Papplewick Hall and Top Farm before arriving at the 12th century Augustinian priory of Newstead Abbey. After a break for a look around we'll head back through Freckland Wood to Linby for an optional pint at the end.
