Come off the road and down the little footpath towards the River Soar and cross the first bridge... before the second bridge is a little island with a couple of picnic tables. A great spot to eat your packed lunch 😋

Lovely stretch of woodland through a nature reserve between the A453 and river Trent. Has some nice sedimentary rock formations!

The walled garden was part of the Bramcote Estate. It's recently restored with statues and paths following the walls of the old buildings.

The Hemlock Stone is an outcrop of New Red Sandstone, deposited more than 200 million years ago in the Triassic Period. Approximately 28 feet (8.5 m) high, it is formed of a layer of Nottingham Castle Sandstone overlying a layer of Lenton Sandstone.

A striking outcrop of red sandstone, the Hemlock Stone rises 31 feet (10 m) on the flanks of Stapleford Hill. Legend has it that this beguiling rock formation has associations with the ancient religious rites of fire and sun worship. When it catches the setting sun, it's easy to imagine why.

Hemlock Stone Open Space is a small park on Stapleford Hill with unusual sandstone feature to the west of Nottingham. The Hemlock Stone, also known as the Himlack Stone, is an inselberg, with black grime on the upper layers from Britain's more industrial past. The rock is the same kind of New Red Sandstone that Nottingham Castle stands on.

Be sure to take a look at this ancient and unusual rock formation from all angles, approaching from the woods and then heading down to the field below.
