Sept 09 Shelford Nurseries, Nr Nottingham.
Saturday saw us walking over the field to Radcliffe, then catching the bus back to the site, in the evening we caught the bus into Nottingham and did the ghost walk.
On Sunday we walked over the fields to Gunthorpe bridge, managing to get lost on the way and confronted by an angry farmer who promptly directed us to the foot path. Eventually we got there and had something to eat at the pub by the canal before walking back. (along the road).
