Overview

From the Sun Inn Car Park we follow Middle Hill Road and tracks towards Clarborough, where

we stop for a drink and snack at the Church. From here we head to the beacon, for spectacular views.

We then follow Red Flats Lane, the Trent Valley Way and zig zag back to Wheatley via Muspitts Lane.
