Overview

The majority of this walk follows a part of the Nottinghamshire Wolds Way from Keyworth to Normanton-on-the-Wolds, Cotgrave Forest, Clipston Wolds and Stanton-on-the-Wolds. Superb views of rolling countryside. We pass the impressive old Plumtree Rectory, Normanton Hall and walk over the line of Stanton Tunnel passing 2 of the Victorian brick ventilation shafts.

Please contact the Leader to let them know that you are coming on the walk. Please leave your name, contact telephone number and email address. Please also state whether you intend going to the designated meeting place or directly to the start of the walk. This will help ensure that you are not left behind. This should not be regarded as “booking a place”.

If you later find that you cannot come on the walk, please notify the Leader as soon as possible in order that the group is not waiting for you to arrive on the day.

There will be refreshment stops and a lunch-time break, so bring some food and drink.

Looking forward to your company on this delightful walk in a pleasant area.
