Thursday Short Walk – Tansley, 20 August

This walk was advertised for June, but due to heatwave conditions on the day we
took a shadier route instead. So we will try again, starting at 11.00 am by Tansley
church. SK 323 599 off the A615 Matlock – Alfreton road. There is street parking
to be had in various spots on the road through the village. We will go through
fields and woodland across Knabhall Lane to Allen Lane and Holestone Gate
Road. Lunch will be taken near Turningstone Edge before retracing our steps to
return via Old Engine Farm, Packhorse Farm, Knabhall and Whitelea Lanes.
Distance about five and a half miles with just one short steepish bit as we climb
out of Tansley.
