Report

Walked from Worksop to Dinnington. An excellent route, mostly off road with varied scenery and good views, slightly let down by a GPX aberration - the straight line across the railway west of Shireoaks is impossible, indefensible and odd, because the plotting of the rest of the route is pretty good.

I have created DINWOR 3, which is mostly the same route, but more accurately plotted and removing an unpleasant section of road walking, and I will post a more detailed review with pictures there.

Report

I walked this route from Worksop at the end of February. The route along the canal was easy to find. The turning off the towpath onto the bridleway to Brantcliffe Grange is easy to find, but the actual route does not follow the line on the 1:25000 map (or the gpx track in Slow Ways), however it is a beaten track that is easy to follow. The footpath approaching Lindrick Dale is diverted around the quarry margin, but again easy to follow. I ended up on the minor road along Lindrick Dale because I couldn't find the footpath.

The section along the edge of Swinston Hill Wood is on a roadside, care needs to be taken. Once the wood ends cross the road and there is a path in the field parallel to the SW side of the road. The paths approaching Dinnington are not the same as the gpx trace, but are easy to find. I enjoyed the countryside sections of this route, and the town sections are on residential roads with pavements.
