Snack Stop by the Sports Field

Highlight • Rest Area

A brief breather from the road, following the little lane/path to the left. Sports field / field on your left, looks like a good place for a snack stop in the sunshine.

Willow Bridge

Highlight • River

This beautiful packhorse bridge crosses the river in an idyllic spot. There are two benches where you can sit and admire birdsong, wildflowers and gently-flowing water.

A small bench at a TPT junction in Oxspring, near Penistone. It always feels like it's a good stop when I'm cycling to or from Barnsley. One autumn there were some wild tomatoes growing between the bench and the fencing behind it.

Venturing into my patch. 👍 The car park is a great starting point. Bet it was busy today. Done a similar walk but starting at Oxspring.
