Winthorpe Hall is now a privately owned care home. text/html 2006-04-15T20:00:18GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/2334 Christine Hasman 53.105854 -0.791536 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/152341 Although some way out of the village, there used to be a halt for Winthorpe at this point on the railway line which runs between Nottingham and Lincoln. text/html 2006-04-15T19:56:09GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/2334 Christine Hasman 53.121102 -0.788120 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/152335 Roughly between the drainage ditch in the foreground, and a point just after the road bend in the distance, Holme Lane makes its distinguished appearance as the only public right of way in SK8158. text/html 2006-04-15T19:49:06GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/2334 Christine Hasman 53.128184 -0.777458 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/152328 The footpath originally continued straight ahead at this point, but was diverted some years ago due to the expansion of the gravel extraction works near Collingham. In recent times, the footpath has been resurfaced and is now also part of route 64 of the National Cycle Network. text/html 2006-04-15T19:42:55GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/2334 Christine Hasman 53.131748 -0.774368 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/152320 There seem to be two very different environments in this photo - one being the highly industrial gravel extraction works, and the other being the peaceful wooded path, which is now also part of route 64 of the National Cycle Network. text/html 2006-04-15T19:35:46GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/2334 Christine Hasman 53.137171 -0.777203 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/152314 One of the many footpaths diverted in this area (due to the expanding gravel extraction works) passes alongside a series of silt lagoons. text/html 2006-04-15T19:27:36GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/2334 Christine Hasman 53.147149 -0.785891 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/152310 Just off the Trent Valley Way, this is usually a reedy pool, but following the dry winter there is very little water left in it. text/html 2006-04-15T19:22:23GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/2334 Christine Hasman 53.146311 -0.791896 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/152305 A slightly drunken gatepost marks the point just beyond which the Trent Valley Way leaves the river to head east for Collingham. text/html 2006-04-15T19:16:53GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/2334 Christine Hasman 53.141817 -0.792022 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/152301 The weir marks the point at which the River Trent becomes tidal, and the huge Cromwell Lock enables river craft to continue upstream (from this viewpoint) towards Newark. The two narrowboats at the right of the picture are waiting for the lock to empty after the previous group of six cabin cruisers had passed through. text/html 2006-04-15T19:09:39GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/2334 Christine Hasman 53.133759 -0.795237 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/152293 About half a mile north of Holme village, the Trent Valley Way crosses Slough Dyke on a substantial footbridge well guarded with safety barriers. This is also where the Dyke goes through the Trent floodbank, and there is a sluicegate just to the right of the bridge to keep floodwaters under control. text/html 2006-04-15T19:02:40GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/2334 Christine Hasman 53.123050 -0.803009 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/152289 The Gothic Farmhouse stands at the crossroads in the centre of Holme, which is a very pretty village, but seems to have an overabundance of overhead cables. text/html 2006-04-15T18:57:25GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/2334 Christine Hasman 53.121268 -0.804552 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/152281 A beautiful old building backing onto fields and the River Trent. text/html 2006-04-15T18:46:03GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/2334 Christine Hasman 53.117628 -0.800171 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/152264 Just south of Holme there is a choice of routes on foot. The Trent Valley Way turns left off the floodbank and bypasses the village, and a second footpath passes over a cattle grid and along the track visible on the right which then enters the village. text/html 2006-04-15T18:21:57GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/2334 Christine Hasman 53.112236 -0.800321 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/152235 A Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust reserve and very popular with fisherman, Winthorpe Lake lies between the River Trent and the Trent Valley Way.
