Highlight • River

This footbridge over The Moss is in a really pretty woodland setting. It’s especially beautiful when the woodland is covered in wild garlic and bluebells in mid-May.

Seldom-Seen Engine House

Highlight • Historical Site

Dating from between 1855 and 1875 and its the last remaining building from the Plumbley Collieries. The building is believed to be haunted, but the ghost was seldom seen so this is a possible reason for the name.
