린들리 목재 저수지 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Lovely spot with a bench for having lunch and admiring the packhorse bridge over a gently flowing river.

Dob Park Bridge spans the River Washburn. The bridge carried the routeway from Dob Park Mill and probably Dob Park Lodge across the river to Norwood and Fewston. It is narrow in width and was intended to carry horses loaded with panniers across the water.

Great in Autumn when the leaves on the trees change colour.

Lindley Wood is a compensation reservoir, which means it is not linked to the supply of water to homes but is there to take excess water from Fewston and Swinsty reservoirs, which are nearby. This is why there is not much water in there.

All Saints' Church is an Anglican church in Farnley, North Yorkshire. The present building is mid Victorian, but there was a much earlier building on the site. Stones from the old building were used in the rebuilding and parts of the north wall seem not to have been demolished at all.

Loved the route along the path through the wood to the bridge after the dam, but turn around there and come back, don't do the loop. The road section is very dangerous.

Don’t walk the loop on the road leg

It would be difficult to walk through Dob Park and not notice this ruin. This is a Grade-II listed structure, ruins of an old 16th century hunting lodge. The ruins are striking enough for the famous British painter JM Turner to have turned it into one of his paintings. Also, the views over the ruins of the countryside - far-reaching views! - are not too bad, either!
