ハラムの湖・トップ11

Delightful & easy path around the Lake and over several footbridges. Suitable for all ages, all abilities and all weathers! Lots of viewpoints and bench seats.

Originally created in 1750 as a water-source for a corn mill, the lake is now a haven for wildlife, especially waterfowl. A path of crushed limestone circles the lake, most of this is flat and accessible, with one incline near "Scotland Bank" which may be a challenge to some wheelchair users.

Sansom Woods have great easy walking paths, criss-crossing throughout them. One of the scenic routes leads to / from Burntstump Hill and follows the edge of the wood with views out over the Nottinghamshire hills, finishing up here at the ponds, or you can extend your walk from here into Blidworth Bottoms woods.

A lovely wood with lots of features. Popular with dog walkers and families there is easy access and a nice combination of wooded and open grassy areas. Lovely for an autumn stroll.

CLAIMED TO BE THE LEGENDARY location where Robin Hood met the feisty Friar Tuck in the famous folktale, the overgrown remains of a 12th-century moat, lodge, and holy well complex persist in this soggy corner of Sherwood Forest. Fountain Dale’s ancient moat is an impressive waterlogged ditch, 40 feet wide, enclosing what was once a large rectangular artificial island. The feature dates to at least 1251, when the moated island was the site of a hunting lodge, the vestiges of which remain hidden beneath centuries of mud and undergrowth. To date, little archaeological investigation at the site has been carried out. This said, the remains of the medieval manse are likely to be well preserved, having remained unusually undisturbed. The moat and its structures are listed as a Scheduled Monument of National Importance by the public heritage organization Historic England.

This former Cistercian abbey, originally founded in 1148 by Gilbert de Gaunt, has today been wonderfully restored to its more recent incarnation as a fine Elizabethan house. Amenities include a café, toilets and a gift shop. The surrounding grounds boast a glorious 130-acre (53 ha) country park. There are delightful lakeside and native woodland walking trails, as well as formal gardens to explore.
