Wooden Boardwalk now mostly replaced by a "Rubble Mound" crushed stone walkway, similar to a breakwater in a sea harbour. With plastic (imitation wood) handrail/fence

Stubbing Pond's history is connected to the industrial past of the Wingerworth area. The pond was created as a source of water power for various activities, including the operation of a smithy. The dam for Stubbing Great Pond was constructed around 1700. From the pond, one can see Stubbing Court, the ancestral home of the Hunloke family.

Good foot paths around Linacre , very wet and muddy once you leave them . Good waterproof boots and gaiters recommend .

The pub jext door is good for food

Great spot for migrating birds. Sitting on the dam wall with a cuppa whiling the time away.

The mill pond was dammed in the late 18th century to provide a constant stream of water for the cotton mill. The mill closed in 1902 and was demolished soon afterwards. The pond became a popular fishing venue and was bought by the Holymoorside Angling Club in the 1980s.

There are three beautiful reservoirs at Linacre, aptly named Lower, Middle, and Upper, going from east to west. The reservoirs are surrounded by fields and woodland with a network of trails and footpaths. The woods are beautiful and include oak, beech, alder, larch, and pine, and in the springtime they are carpeted with bluebells. It is a scenic area, and there is a public car park on the northern edge of the woods of the Lower Reservoir.
