Overview

An 8 mile circular walk from Fiskerton Rail Station visiting Southwell. An early start. Meet at Leicester Rail Station for the 7.50 train to Fiskerton (via Nottingham). The walk will start at about 9.15 from Fiskerton Railway Station. The morning will be a five mile walk through Fiskerton (on the River Trent) and then to Southwell for lunch. We should have time to look around the town and visit the magnificent 12th century Minster. (Admission is free.)
