Thursday Walk – Ashover

22 February Short

We will start at 11.00 am at Ashover Village Hall, On street parking or there
are usually plenty of spaces at the Village Hall, Most of the route is not on
the White Peak map, you need Explorer 269, Chesterfield and Alfreton. My
plan is cunningly to avoid all the steepest ups and downs in the parish,
taking us via Hockley Quarry to Fallgate, Milltown, Overton Hall, Goss Hall
and Butts Quarry. The basic route is a mere five miles but can be
lengthened with some steeper ground included according to the
enthusiasm and fitness of the party on the day. There are, of course three
excellent pubs in the village should anyone happen to be interested in such
establishments.
