amazing old railway trail into lincoln - generally quiet, slightly busier as your approach skellingthorpe end.

Worth putting your nose into Harby church to see this. Eleanor's heart is preserved in Lincoln cathedral but her body was transported to London. At every overnight stop her husband, Edward 1(?), erected a cross, hence Waltham Cross, Charing Cross and 10 others.

Entrances into Old Wood are via bridle gates – suitable for wheelchairs and pushchairs – and stiles, although at some points of entry access may be limited. The eastern side of the wood is accessed via two public byways which join up with a bridleway and footpath running along the eastern edge of the site. Two more footpaths enter the woodland from the west, over adjacent farmland via a stile. https://www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/visiting-woods/woods/old-wood-skellingthorpe/

A great track , starting at Fledborough where High Marnham power station was located and going to Braeford Wharf in Lincoln City centre.Twenty five miles return trip if you park at Fledborough.Parking there is fine in the side road.

If you need to load up the carbs, the chip butty has my recommendation. One of the best I've had.

A gravel track, but a handy crossing of the River Trent.
