Otro parque para gozar en familia! Nos encanta por el espacio que tiene este parque. Tiene dos playgrounds, uno de arena para bebés más pequeñitos, y otro con slides y swings para mayores. Nos lo pasamos en grande en familia! Completely recomended!
Visit to a mine closed 30 years ago
A visit to one of the former big collieries. Some of the site is preserved, like the winding house but it is huge so much is fallen into decay. Just a collection of shots from the visit. If you like this sort of thing have a look on 28dayslater.co.uk it's an urban exploration site I visit. Some great pics on there, much better than this!

Five years ago this mound-like feature was rediscovered in thick woodland by history lover and former teacher Lynda Mallett, along with husband Stuart Reddish and John Wood, all from Rainworth, using an original perambulation document dated to 1816.
Their research has also suggested that it may once have marked the boundary between the Anglo Saxon kingdoms of Mercia and Northumbria.
After reporting the intriguing find to local history society members in Clipstone, Warsop and Edwinstowe, a new group was formed to work with forest chiefs to investigate the site's significant history and encourage wider community appreciation and involvement. A topographical survey will take place this autumn and there will be open days for the general public.
