good starting point for walks and bike rides, can easily get into sherwood pines from here and all surrounding routes, a very nice area and seems popular for fishing

Nice easy ride for all on a gravel path

Spa Ponds is a beautiful area & Packman's Road is a nice ride through the woods. Makes a great link between Maun Valley, Clipstone Forest & Sherwood Pines via Vicar Water Country Park.

Beautiful spot, four ponds draining into the River Maun, reminds me of a mini Linacre Reservoirs!

Set of 4 ponds draining into the River Maun. Lovely, peaceful spot. You might see the odd kingfisher flying around if you’re lucky. Great place to walk but can get a bit muddy after heavy rain.

On the western edge of the former royal deer park of Clipstone, in the heart of Sherwood Forest- are a series of large ponds fed by a spring and a tributary of the River Maun. They are overlooked by steep slopes of ground to the east which once housed a fortification built by Edward II in the early 14th century. This fortification was Clipstone Peel- built as a refuge during a time of political turmoil. The peel was constructed in timber except for a stone gatehouse. When the peel was dismantled during the reign of Edward III, the gatehouse was left standing, and the small ruin known as Beeston Lodge is now all that remains. Overlooked by this fortification the ponds were kept for provision of fish for the king- and represent a massive undertaking by the crown. They are a hugely important part of local medieval heritage, and are an important part of a national story relating to the time of Edward II.

Located between Mansfield and Bolsover, this picturesque woodland is rapidly developing into one of the most attractive wildlife sites in the region. With its mixture of mature broadleaf woodland, newly planted trees, large open meadows and a scenic wetland valley, Shirebrook Wood offers something for everybody.
