A very clear single track that loops back to Caldon Canal.

Black Lion Pub, Consall Forge
Highlight • Pub
Inside it has an open log fire (always a plus!).
We didn't try the food but when we finally got near to the bar (it is very popular and maybe a little understaffed?) next to the ales were samples of each.
Outside are plenty of benches you can rest on and watch the steam trains pass by or just to take in the tranquil surroundings of the Churnet Valley and the Caldon Canal.

Consall Nature Park
Highlight • Forest
The majority of the area is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and the park’s primary focus is on conservation, rather than recreation. However, the public are welcome to come and enjoy the superb walking, fishing and picnic facilities.
The park’s secluded location and its diverse habitats make it a haven for a number of mammals and plethora of butterfly species, including the green hairstreak and the small pearl bordered fritillary.

In its 1730 heyday, the Churnet Valley's works produced an annual 150,000 tonnes of ironstone. The Consall Nature Park is full of vestiges from this booming era.
