ノルマントンのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

From the village of Upper Hambleton there is a path that takes you round the peninsula. It is around 4m in length.

Great place with great views

This iconic church is Rutland's most famous landmark. It was saved from the water and is now open for guided tours that recount the history of this beautiful building and its surroundings and also provides a stunning location for civil weddings and classical concerts.

Ride over this lovely bridge in Ketton, heading south, and within a mile you will be tackling the steady climb to Collyweston featured in these pages.

This ancient woodland was partly destroyed through construction of the reservoir. It is a neglected coppice of the Peterken Ash-Maple, Ash-Hazel, Pedunculate Oak-Hazel and Invasive Elm types but has been partly planted with conifers.

The church was built in classical style for the Normanton Hall estate on the site of a 14th-century building. Except for the tower, the medieval church was rebuilt in 1764 by Sir Gilbert Heathcote, 3rd Baronet. The church was de-consecrated in 1970, and was to have been demolished as part of the reservoir construction, as its floor was below the proposed water level. Following a public outcry, the lower half was filled with stone and rubble, and a concrete cap constructed just below the level of the windows.

Was fine for us in a wet May

Great views but very blowy and exposed on a windy day.
