Brierley Forest Park - Nottinghamshire
I first did this page back in 2003 after first visiting
this park in 2001,I have now updated this page for July 2009.The
photo's are from a sunny Sunday in April 2009 Not Really a forest as such, The forest park was only made in 1999, with
recently planted woodland.
There are 3 miles of inter
connecting Trails on the site of the old Sutton pit though locally known as
Brierley pit. This Forrest park has now been linked to the
Silverhill Trail via the new Brierley
Branch link built on the route of the old converted pit railway line in
2007. Since being linked to the Silverhill Trail I now use Brierley Park as
part of my usual circuit.
