Best foot forward with Team YLL’S personal favourite local strolls:
Julie – Me and the hubbie like to walk along London Road through Silk Willoughby, down Gorse Lane, cutting through the fields. Depending which turn you take, you can arrive at the back of Southfields or in to Mareham Pastures Nature Reserve. Approx. 4 miles.
Rich – A favourite walk that my wife and I like to do is along the river by Haverholme Priory. There’s a lovely little waterfall into an old lock, plenty of birds (we’ve seen herons, woodpeckers and the kingfisher) and of course the eye-catching ruins of the priory that you can see across a field.
Kerry – Sausage & monsters love the local fields behind our home in Ruskington: across Pooh Bridge, through the crazy chickens and to the Faraway Tree! Without disturbing the angry-geese!
Mel – Belton Park is one of my favourite places to go for a walk. Local to me and only 20 minutes from Sleaford, it’s a walk that can be enjoyed and appreciated over the changing seasons. The deer and sheep graze quite happily as you wander past and it’s always lovely to hear the lambs and birdsong during the springtime. It’s a breath of fresh air!
