Sounds like you had a wonderful walk and found out lots of interesting facts.

Have really enjoyed reading your post - isn't it amazing how much wildlife you can see in the city? We saw kingfishers up in our city centre on the canal as it runs through the park towards the steam museum at Etruria. What an interesting but gruesome story about the highwayman! Like you I've been struggling with a rotten cold which just doesn't seem to want to go away. Hope you feel better soonRosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733563829902335223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602197958070805605.post-33345099312376101482011-01-03T20:42:46.350+00:002011-01-03T20:42:46.350+00:00I could never quite believe that the Hillsborough ...I could never quite believe that the Hillsborough flood, surged all the way from loxley down the don valley all the way to rotherham!!!!John Going Gentlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14958171262765033946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602197958070805605.post-32896783404897457052011-01-03T20:40:43.620+00:002011-01-03T20:40:43.620+00:00Thanks for that lovely walk, I too have never seen...Thanks for that lovely walk, I too have never seen a kingfisher, would love to though xRebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08683100048095202350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602197958070805605.post-33169103064310174742011-01-03T18:31:31.062+00:002011-01-03T18:31:31.062+00:00Hello firstly Betty LOVED her card and showed it o...Hello firstly Betty LOVED her card and showed it off to visitors. Secondly loved your walk its one that I have never done and my late Dad did it lots. He was born and bred in Attercliffe and loved the fact that nature had returned. My uncle says there are otters living in the river near Lady's Bridge he works near there and has seen them. As for the pub I did know that bit as I walked up and down Broughton Lane as a small child and my mum and dad used to tell me about it. Think the pub used to be called the Hangman.

If not, then check out www.geocaching.com - it's a sort of international treasure hunt :) I just looked up part of your walk on the site and there are quite a few caches around there.<br /><br />We've used geocaching to find lots of lovely walks both near home and further afield. Most are set by locals and take you to spots you may not have considered. My favourite was when we were on holiday in the Lake District and a geocache took us to a stone circle that we wouldn't have come across otherwise - it was a spectacular location, surrounded by snow-capped peaks.Sarahhttp://sarah.robpannell.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602197958070805605.post-45384100165656810232011-01-03T17:56:15.642+00:002011-01-03T17:56:15.642+00:00I've travelled along that way by coach several...I've travelled along that way by coach several times recently and often thought it looked an interesting area to explore.jennyfreckleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12221511824958069710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602197958070805605.post-91651484463058580722011-01-03T17:41:54.918+00:002011-01-03T17:41:54.918+00:00Fascinating!
