A Circular Walk Around Clumber Park Lake, Nottingham

in Proof of Brain2 years ago (edited)

It was a nice day with lovely blue sky so we visited Clumber Park in Nottinghamshire. The park itself is beautiful, with lots of old trees to look at. We decided to walk around the lake which is just over three miles.

Back in 2018, the ornate bridge that is around 200 years old and Grade II listed, was intentionally vandalised when a car was deliberately driven into it.
Thankfully, it has now been restored to its former glory

Black headed gulls perched on a dead tree trunk in the lake, with a pair of nesting great crested grebes at the bottom of the tree.

When you walk through the wood, you can hear many birds, including woodpeckers.

It was a nice flat walk and good that the sun has returned. There was plenty to see with the lake, gardens, woods and wildlife.

Welcome my dear...

I can almost hear the woodpeckers. I love the old bridges in the UK.

Me too. What possessed someone to drive into it is anyone's guess.

Quite a wild place with big old trees. Lovely and relaxing atmosphere for a walk! But I would like a coffee too!

I'm sat here having just that. 🙂☕
