Route

Two routes (which form a circular walk) between Dore and Dronfield, that were probably used to take the dead for burial before Dore had its own churchyard.

Outward – Through the Golf Course and down Twentywell Lane. On to the village green via Water Lane and Cavendish Avenue
Inward – Bushey Wood Road, Prospect Road and Barnes Lane.
The walk uses both urban areas and green tracks.

There is a steep climb from Abbeydale road up to Prospect road on the return leg of the walk.

Notes

Parking – If possible, please use nearby street parking rather than the spaces directly outside the shops.
