Denton & Grantham Canal, 20th May 2015

 
Today's walk started at the (sadly) closed Welby Arms in Denton before circumnavigating the nearby reservoir, used to top up the Grantham Canal.  We (15) then passed through fields to reach Denton Wharf for coffee.


 Crossing over and under Bridge 66 we followed the canal up to the wooden bridge ...
 ... and a path which took us to the disused railway and back to Denton.  This was used to transport ore away from the quarries around Harlaxton and Harston and joined the Nottingham-Grantham line at Muston.
