The Parish Church was probably built in the late part of the 12th century, possibly on the site of the church hinted at in Domesday, the earlier building most likely of wattle and daub. The present church has traces of Norman work in the north and east walls which are two and a half feet thick. It is built of local limestone, with stones of handy sizes not laid in horizontal courses. Originally it was a plain rectangular building consisting of chancel, nave and a small tower. At some time in the XIV century a south aisle was added, and in the next century the porch was built. At the same time as the porch another stage was added to the tower, which is square, pinnacled, and unbuttressed. At some later date the porch was moved from the south to the north side of the church, its old position still clearly marked on the outside of the south wall. Another alteration visible from the exterior, and also on the south, is the blocked up 'Priest's Doorway' in the south wall of the chancel.

A great place to stop at the end of your activity or somewhere to get a drink.

A picturesque village just outside north of Nottingham

Great route a must try

Never really know where to look like, stables, Newstead Abbey?

Entering Newstead Abbey Park from the Ravenshead/ Nottingham Rd entrance there is a sign suggesting entrance fee for cyclists, as well as cars. I just cycle through, never been challenged! I always pass through to Annesley without stopping, maybe the charge provides a ticket for visiting the gardens?

wonderful trail great for all levels Find the giants tools

This is where you can go either to Newstead Villiage or follow cycle route 6 to Newstead Abbey. This is very muddy in wet or after weather.

This is a great steady walk or ride, from Linby to Newstead Abbey or to the Village. Beware this track can get very muddy in wet weather

Can be a little narrow in places and has a hidden dip where you might not be able to see other users coming up

you'll see a fork into a steep downhill follow this down keep to the left trail for rabbit (takes you to small drops) and keep right for hare(a short steep decent where you can build huge speed, go left at the bottom towards drops)

There's a rumour that pancakes were invented in Linby when the villagers freed themselves from Danish conquerers but it's a bit doubtful to be honest. What it is today is a really cute village that won't fail to surprise you as you ride through. The Horse & Groom is a really welcoming pub with a lovely garden and they're very happy for you to take your bikes around the back. As the village is deemed a Conservation Area, it has stayed largely unspoilt and has two streams running down both sides of the village's main street. There are stone cottages and a beautifully restored church that dates back to the 13th century.

Part of the SUSTRANS route 6 from Worksop to Nottingham, the Linby bike trail is a super handy gravel trail, pan-flat, that runs along the railway and takes you from the back gate of Newstead Abbey to the picturesque villages of Linby and Papplewick. Also suitable for bike touring. Gets a little busy on sunny days in summer so having a bell is advised. When it's quiet, it's a great track to soar along at speed.

Beautiful, super quiet road through the Abbey grounds. Mind the peacocks and the geese.
