Robin Hood's Stride

Dan and I went along to the East Midlands Geological Society lecture on Saturday evening given by Tim Colman. Gerry was there and invited Amy and I along to the Derby WEA fieldtrip. So on Wednesday Amy and I went to Robin Hood's Stride and luckily the weather that day was perfect for walking.

Waving at lorries while waiting for the bus.

Mingling, exploring and getting very muddy!


Stomping around the countryside. She got a lot of giggles running down the hills. Robin Hood's Stride is the rock formation off to the left hand side of this picture. Amy walked virtually all the way there from Elton which is over 2km's.
Lunch break.

Up at Robin Hood's Stride. We had 360 degree views of the country side. We are looking at a stone circle near Castle Ring an old medieval fort. In the distance is Haddon Hall and Manners wood.
Flat out after a lovely day in the country side.
Back in Derby and a very happy little girl.
