キャバーズウォールの天然記念物・トップ13

Hole in the wall... no cash coming out of it though :D

Amazing little find whilst on the walk... makes you wonder!

The Ford Green Reed Bed is a Site of Special Scientific Interest, designated because of the large numbers of swallows that gather there before migrating at the end of the summer.

The start of the walk is all up Hill but from then on it's a gentle stroll

Go to the gate of Hopestone Cottage and you will find a public footpath marker on the left of the gate to enter.

In the 18th century Bluebarn farm on Downs Bank grew hops for Joule's Brewery. In 1946 Joule's purchased the land from Viscount Sidmouth. The area was subject to purchase with the help of a public subscription and it was given to the National Trust by John Joule in 1950, as "an offering for victory in the 1939-45 War, and as a memorial to those who died" - apparently on the grounds that it had originally been common land, and should thus be open again to local people.

The Ford Green Reed Bed at the south end of the site is one of Stoke-on-Trent's two Sites of Special Scientific Interest. It has been designated because large numbers of swallows gather there before leaving the country at the end of the summer.

An awesome dolmen to which is attributed healing powers should one lie within it. Legend would have it that the local hermit, Gawton resided here.
