SK4563 : A Short Walk
Try to imagine this short, after lunch walk as being in the shape of a tadpole. The walk starts at the bottom of the tail, goes clockwise around the body and then, back down the tail.
At the end of the tail is the Hardwick Inn and car park, whilst the body comprises Hardwick Great Pond and a small area of wetland to the south.
This photograph, which is nearly at the very finish of the walk and is the last photograph in the sequence, is looking across parkland near the ‘end of the tadpole's tail.’ The gate is by the side of a cattle grid and the Hardwick Inn is through the gate and to the right.
The road, which is one-way except for National Trust estate traffic, is the exit for visitors who have parked their cars at the hall car park.
