Callans Lane Wood

Highlight • Forest

Well packed trail. Bit of a dead end but can have some fun in the dense woods and the end. Watch out for the electric fence in the woods!

Tip by

St James is a medieval church, though largely rebuilt at its restoration in 1856. It’s a Grade I listed building.

There’s a bench at the front, making the village of Aslackby (which is pronounced ‘Aze-ul-be’) a good rest spot.
