Pretty old industrial bridge!

Worth stopping for these beautiful murals by Phoebe Traquair

This is the joint of the Trent and a marina with a lock protecting the Chesterfield canal. This is my commencement point to complete a cycle of the whole Chesterfield canal top to toe.

Nice RSPB reserve. Egrets, Hen Harriers and loads more. Friendly, helpful...and tea or coffee, crisps etc.

Small shop but has everything you could want. £1 card limit is a godsend when you forget to buy water. Believe there is an instant coffee machine if you need a warm up but plenty of sugar on sale!

The road meets the River Ouse here at Whitgift with open views both east and west. Looking east, keep an eye out for the Whitgift Lighthouse, a grade II listed building. It has been guiding craft along the river since the 19th century.

Rawcliffe Bridge is a small hamlet adjacent to the Aire and Calder Navigation. From the vantage point of the bridge you can see along the length of the canal and the marina to the north east. To the south-west of the village is the Sugar Mill Ponds, which can be accessed down Stocks Drive. Until recently these two clay pits for the local brickworks were a waste site. Now it is a peaceful wildlife haven and a lovely place to stop and catch your breath.

Warning! If you plot a route from Beckhingham across to Bar Road, Komoot will default you onto the cycle path that starts in the central reservation twenty metres down the dual carriageway back into Gainsborough, causing you to either go back round ten miles or jump off the carriageway at speed. Not safe and not clever. Sort this nonsense out, Komoot.
