Written by Sheffield local Jon Barton, the text is
peppered with interesting detail about Sheffield’s industrial past,
geology and the varied and surprising wildlife that can be seen on this
walk.
The walk starts and finishes at Hunter’s Bar Roundabout, where you can visit the lovely independent shops and cafes along Ecclesall Road and Sharrow Vale Road. From here the route goes through Endcliffe Park following the Porter Brook to Ringinglow. Next, pick up the Limb Brook, following it down to Ecclesall Woods and then on to Beauchief. Onwards through Graves Park, Meersbrook Park and passing the River Sheaf before climbing up through Nether Edge and Chelsea Park and back to the start.
The walk is split into four linear sections, which vary in character
from peaceful and rural to lively and urban. Each section includes
plenty of ideas for places to visit on the route as well as details of
local cafes and pubs.
Together with stunning photography, this book features Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 maps, easy-to-follow directions, refreshment stops and places to visit on and near the route.
