Our June walk started at Linby Village.
The route was across the meadow to Papplewick, into Moor Pond Woods following the footpaths by the River Leen to Grange Farm and Grange Mill.
Some of us could remember that once upon a time this used to be the location of Papplewick Lido. This was built on the site of the former Papplewick Grange, the home of Nottingham solicitor Jesse Hind, which was pulled down in 1932. The lido itself was built in the mid 1930s and demolished in 1995, with houses now built on the site.
Our return route took us via Papplewick Dam and the fishing pond back to Linby where we made good use of the facilities at Brooke farm.
