Southwell Trail at Farnsfield

Image: © Oliver Dixon Taken: 7 Mar 2014

The Mansfield, Southwell and Rolleston Junction Railway, built in 1847, closed to passengers in 1959 and wholly in 1964 has been converted into a trail for walkers, cyclists and horseriders known as the Southwell Trail, which runs through from Bilsthorpe to Southwell. The eastern end of the trail from Farnsfield to Southwell is in quite reasonable condition; the northern limb on to Bilsthorpe much less so.
