マーストンオンダブでの 周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

Nice little cafe that welcomes cyclists. Seating available inside and also in the courtyard. Various others shops around the courtyard. Cycles can be parked in the courtyard within view from the cafe.

The Crossing House, or Crossing Cottage, used to sit on the NSRC 'Jinnie' line which ran between Burton Upon Trent and Tutbury from 1848 until 1960. The track was dismantled in the 1970s, and some of the route now forms Princess Way, though some is a footpath that runs from Stretton to Rolleston on Dove.

Eggy-Peggy Lane used to connect Bitham Lane to Bitham Clay Pit. The origin of the name is in doubt.  Many people say it is because it was a good place for bird nesting (and collecting eggs which is now illegal) plus the fact that gypsy caravans sometimes parked on the lane to cut wood from the hazel trees to make their traditional clothes pegs to sell in the area. A very old name for the hawthorn tree was the Heg-Peg Tree so (as the hedges were mainly hawthorn and hazel) Eggy Peggy Lane may be a corruption of Heggy Peggy Lane!

There's no station (or train lines) here anymore, but "Station Walk" follows the path of the old train line that used to connect Burton to Tutbury via Stretton and Rolleston.
