Radbin two

Slow Way not verified yet. Verify Radbin here.

RADBIN1 is fine for those who are in a hurry or those with mobility issues, but is almost entirely on the pavement of the A52. This route is a longer alternative for those who prefer quiet paths with views, and uses parts of the Trent Valley Way. It uses Radcliffe's popular cliff-top path and passes through the quiet village of Shelford, then passes the former RAF Newton airfield. From here on the route into Bingham is unavoidably constrained by the need to use the one available bridge over the A46, and from here there is a choice of routes - the RADBIN 1 route is not bad but the CARBIN 3 route is quieter once the old A46 is left, so I have used that. The only minor drawbacks other than increased distance are that parts of it are on unsurfaced field paths that may get muddy when very wet, there is a substantial new housing development underway at Newton, and until it is finished, the bridleway connecting the airfield with the A46 path will not be as quiet as usual, and there is some risk of further temporary closures (it was definitely open when I walked it yesterday)
