Cycle and walking route

A walk around Grassmoor Image : Previous - (35 of 51) – Next : Image This photograph was taken from what is now the end of an embankment that once carried the trackbed of a branch line connecting the main line (behind the viewpoint) into the former Avenue Coking Works https://www.suez.com/en/our-offering/Success-stories/Our-references/Chesterfield-s-former-coking-works at Wingerworth. Before the works closed there was a bridge at this point that carried the trackbed over Mill Lane into the works and which still existed when this photograph by Nikki Mahadevan was taken:- Image The trail (yet to be opened in this photograph) parallels the course of the Midland main line, which is in the trees on the right, will eventually link with Storforth Lane in Chesterfield. In the immediate foreground is the approximate site of Wingerworth Mill after which Mill Lane was named. See also this photograph by Alan Murray-Rust:- Image
