Overview

Come with Mal on a short "magical bus ride" from Southwell Leisure Centre to Thurgarton. We will then take a leisurely walk across open countryside to Bleasby. The route continues adjacent to the railway for a time before we enter the Brackenhurst estate on our way back to Southwell. There will be a coffee stop and lunch in Brackenhurst Gardens

Please register for this walk on Newark Ramblers website where you will also find details of our car share scheme.
