Coming your way - Farnsfield on 22nd February 2015


 


As you drive down the A6097 just before the Oxton by-pass, you may have wondered about those lumps on the horizon to your left. Well this walk will take you up to the most southerly one, the buried remains of Farnsfield Roman camp.


 





We start at Farnsfield's Parish Church of St Michael 










and will get to the camp in time for coffee and spend some time enjoying the 360 degree views.


 
 
 


We must retrace our steps a bit and pick up the Robin Hood Way from which we have some more panoramic views to the north ...



... and then head for the Parish Church of St Giles at ...





 






We can then go back to Farnsfield along the Southwell Trail ...







... but some of us may like to take a diversion to see the red deer and famous potato fields in Hexgreave Park to the north of Farnsfield.  This will add half an hour to the walk.
