August 31, 2024,Duffield circular - Duffield Meadows- Hazelgrove - lumb Brook - Duffield golf course

Lovely circular walk - apart from a rather precarious bridge ( see photo 2- Duffiled Measows!)

Loved the crossing of Lumb Brook) .... probs best after a dry spell - the woods are steep and would defintely be a slippery challenge when wet🫣

Great countryside views over Hazelwood and Belper 😎
