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.

Haxey Church and Parish are over 900 years old. The Church of St Nicholas is a prominent landmark and visible from most of the parish. It was founded in the 12th century by the Earl of Mowbray, the then Lord of the Manor but little can be seen of the original structure, the church has been changed and remodelled several times since then. It was first extended in about 1200 A.D., but the great transformation of this Norman church into the Perpendicular style of architecture took place in about the middle of the 14th century and into the 15th century, including the new tower, 90 feet high, which was built in the 15th century.

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.
