リクストンウィズグレイズブルック周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

One of the five RHS gardens in England, the Chinese Streamside Garden is my personal favourite with the abundance of maples, magnolias, rhododendrons, primulas, hydrangeas and Ginkgo's. But don't miss the Victorian-style glasshouses & Paradise Garden either. If you are less able to walk long distances they have electric scooters and manual wheel chairs you can book.

Great place to visit - worth the entry fee (if not a NT member)

Sankey Valley Park is a public park in Warrington, Cheshire. It occupies part of the Sankey Valley, and the main park itself covers over 1½ miles between Sankey Bridges in the south and Callands in the north. The valley follows the course of Sankey Brook and the now disused Sankey Canal. The park is enjoyed by walkers, cyclists and anglers, and the central section of the park is family orientated with children's play features, a maze and lawn areas. Bewsey Old Hall (and the Maltings Public House) sit on the edge of the central section of the park. The Trans Pennine Trail passes around 500 yards (460 m) from the southern tip of the park.

A section of a great long-distance cycling and hiking trail

Lovely path from Carr Mill dam to Warrington's Trans Pennine way. Great jumping off point for all my adventures as I live very close to it

The 'Pennine Trail' already brings many visitors to the area and of course this memorial site will encourage people that wish to stroll along this famous trail which eventually leads up to the Carlisle borders. Life for a Life planting areas are natural environments where we encourage wildlife and plantlife to flourish,

This site is situated at the beginning of the famous 'Pennine Trail' and was officially opened on 6th February 2004 by His Grace, The Duke of Westminster. This extensive site runs towards the banks of the River Mersey and has been refurbished by Life for a Life and United Utilities. Life for a Life in growing partnership with United Utilities, has reclaimed land that was derelict for over many years and has now been put to use for the benefit of the community. The site has a well established footpath through the area, suitable for wheelchair users and the elderly. Many benches have been installed throughout the memorial forest, which can be enjoyed by all visitors.

The Sankey Canal opened in 1757, following the valley along the Sankey Brook, however was abandoned between 1931 and 1963. The canal has been under restoration since 1985 with the formation of the Sankey Canal Restoration Society. The trail then enters the linear Sankey Valley Park, a lovely green corridor, that has links to the Trans-Pennine Trail and follows a stretch of Sankey Canal and Sankey Brook. Along the way you will pass through woodlands, farmlands, and parkland with scenic paths and chance to spot some wildlife as you wind to Carr Mill where you can enjoy some refreshments. Returning to the start will require more than one bus so check schedules before heading out. While for the most part the paths are well-surfaced but care is needed in wetter conditions when sections can be muddy and slippery. There are also some stairs along the route.
