몰리 최고의 러닝 경로

영국에서 가장 작고 독특한 교구 교회 중 하나로, 크기는 25피트 x 26피트에 불과합니다. 12세기 중반으로 거슬러 올라가는 이 교회는 말 그대로 반 분리형으로, 개인 소유의 역사적인 농가와 지붕과 벽을 공유하고 있습니다. 원래는 이웃한, 지금은 폐허가 된 중세 수도원의 병원 예배당으로 사용되었으며, 인접한 건물은 나중에 "Blue Bell Inn"이라는 이름의 선술집으로 사용되었습니다. 전설에 따르면 목사가 선술집 바에서 옷을 갈아입고 갤러리 문을 통해 설교하러 갔다고 합니다. 크기에도 불구하고 내부는 수태고지, 방문, 탄생을 묘사한 잘 보존된 13세기 후반의 벽화가 있습니다. 이 예배당은 제단 뒤에 놓인 눈에 띄는 1634년 설교단, 계단식 갤러리 좌석, 17세기 박스형 좌석 등 역사적인 특징으로 가득 차 있습니다. 주변 마을과 수도원 폐허는 민속에서 로빈 후드 전설에서 Allan-a-Dale이 연인과 결혼한 장소로 유명합니다.

A scenic, peaceful, and popular, privately-owned, man-made lake situated within the historic Locko Park estate. It is surrounded by lush green parkland, making it ideal for quiet walks, picnicking, and wildlife watching.

Ownership of the estate and surrounding area is recorded back as early as the Doomsday book of 1086, when the land is recorded as belonging to a Saxon called Stori. Following the Norman Conquest, the Manor of Spondon was one of 210 manors awarded to Baron Henri de Ferriers, a Norman companion of William the Conqueror, for his bravery and support during the Battle of Hastings. In 1180, descendant William de Ferriers gave the land to the Burton Lazars of Leicestershire, an order of St. Lazarus monks dedicated to the care and nursing of lepers. The monks founded a leper hospital on the Locko Estate to the rear of the existing Locko Hall building. Indeed, the name Locko derives from the hospital, coming from the old French word 'loques', meaning rags.

Really lovely every time we have been staff have been wonderful, food is lovely and the venue itself is very well planned out for seating, especially like the hooks outside for your dog to be attached to rather than worrying your dog is going to take the table with them when a squirrel catches their eye 😆

Really nice food and staff

Locko Hall is a privately owned 18th century grade II listed mansion. The chapel, built in 1669 is the oldest part of the house. Substantial additions were made to the house in the 19th century. The majority of the garden and parkland design was completed in the late 1700s.

The Mapperley Reservoir is a very large fresh water lake that spans 17-18 acres and includes a nature reserve that spans 2 acres. The venue, surrounded by trees and situated in a very nice setting, is a nice place to fish throughout the year.

Nice coffee shop. Had to wait a while for food but it was busy and Sunday. Lovely food. Friendly staff
