Skegby Trail
Image: © Alan Walker Taken: 18 Feb 2018
The photograph shows the entrance off Buttery Lane, Skegby into a car park for the Skegby Trail. When this trail was created it was called the 'Skegby Track' rather than the 'Skegby Trail' which, presumably, was a reference to these routes originally being railway tracks. Similar signage can be seen in this photograph at Image and in this photograph by Alan Murray-Rust of the Image The change from 'track' to 'trail' appears to have been made before Image was constructed. Originally there was another board above 'Skegby Track' where the wording 'Teversal Trails' was included. This was a collective reference to the group of three trails, namely the Skegby Trail, the Link Trail and the Teversal Trail. These trails are included in the Ashfield Trails Network http://www.nottinghamshire.gov.uk/planning-and-environment/countryside-and-green-spaces/green-spaces/teversal-trails and the Phoenix Greenways network https://derbyshire.gov.uk/images/Phoenix%20Greenways%202015%20web_tcm44-159660.pdf .'
