At 11:11 am on 27 November 1944 a huge explosion occurred at the RAF Fauld underground munitions facility. The accident caused over 3,500 tonnes of bomb and ammunition to explode, which resulted in this massive crater. The site is still considered dangerous with possible unexploded ordnance, so please obey the signs and stay on the path.

The Old Poachers Oak, Markeaton Park: This ancient oak tree, behind the Famous Trains building, is hollow in the middle. Its imaginative name comes from its use as a hiding place by illegal poachers when it was part of Markeaton Estate. Although it looks like a small tree, it is probably one of the oldest on the park and could tell some stories – perhaps the next one will be yours.

Anchor Church caves are found in a Sandstone outcrop, close to Ingleby. The naturally formed caves have been extended by to form a dwelling (likely a hermitage around the 8th/9th century), complete with door and window holes. In more recent history (1840's) the owners of Foremarke Hall undertook some additional enhancements so they could use the caves as a summerhouse and picnic spot.

Interesting rock formations but covered in graffiti, unfortunately.

For Covid-19 period, a one way (clockwise) circuit of the lake has been introduced. Please follow the signs

A wood that has been created for remembering various people who have passed away (their friends and relatives can buy and dedicate a tree in their memory). The wood is open to all and is a nice place to stop for a picnic. There are many, many picnic tables spread throughout the site. https://www.heritage-wood.co.uk/ Very scenic lake surrounded by picnic tables and populated by HUGE carp (absolutely no fishing!)
