Welcome to the June edition of the Amber Valley Voice

and a very wet summer we have had so far!!

I would like to welcome lots of new advertisers and community information this month, which all adds to the

local feel of the magazine. It is really important that this magazine is kept local and we genuinely welcome all feedback, any recommendations and community infor-

mation you send to us.

There are also plenty of discounts in this months edition, check on all pages for the dotted coupon lines for exclusive offers for AVV readers! In addition, we

have lots of events going on, should you wish to leave the house during this summer of sport!! See pages 6 & 7 for more details.

Keep the updates coming for the July edition and I’ll see you next month...hopefully with sunnier weather!!

Happy Reading,

Emily

� Park in the free car parking spaces that are available in Alfreton Park

� Begin the walk at on the soil bridlepath near the park entrance that runs down the right hand side of the park. Follow the bridlepath around the outside of the park to-wards Alfreton Hall. Continue right at cross roads around the back of Alfreton Hall where you join up with Church Street.

� Carry on Chruch Street past the entrance to the Leisure Centre and take the next left towards St Martin’s Church.

� At the church follow the path left that takes you towards the entrance and then take the flag stone path around the outside of the church . Cross the stile and you will find a number of possible paths. Head left taking the path with a hedge on the left. At the end of the long straight path take the track that runs directly across a large field.

� In the corner of the field is a stile and car-ry on the path with the hedge on your right. Cross another stile at the end of this field and turn left and you will cross one more stile before you reach the road.

� Head right on the pavement for about 50 meters and then cross, using a stile to join a path that will take you down the side of a long field with the hedge on your right.

� As you near the end of the field take the second gap in the hedge and pass through a small wooded area before emerging out onto the golf course.

� Head across two fairways, taking care to avoid golfers. Head left around the wood-ed area until you reach a path on the left that will take you into the Oakerthorpe Nature Reserve.

� In the reserve head straight ahead, across a path that becomes boarded and then takes you out of the reserve up to a gate.

� Carry on past the houses until the path brings you to the B6013.

7 Mile Circular Walk From Alfreton Park to South Wingfield Another great walk for you and your dog it offers a range of scenery and plenty of off-lead walking. The route is fairly long taking about 3 1/2 hours. It is fairly undulating with some small uphill sections and the terrain is mixed with some

sections which may be best tackled with a sturdy pair of boots.

This walk is for illustrative purposes only. The Amber Valley Voice takes no responsibility for anyone who

chooses to follow this route and encourages all walkers to obey all byelaws and signs and to respect the

area they are walking in, ensuring they pick up all dog mess and obey the countryside code at all times.

� Cross the road and turn left. At the post box follow the footpath sign across the grass and head to the far corner of the car park at Hollowbank House. Take the path round to the left and uphill. Climb the steps and follow the path as it takes you alongside a field with the wood on your left.

� At the end of the field, heading downhill until you reach a gate. Turn right onto the farm track that takes you back alongside the wood and the railway track.

� Cross the stile near the farm house then pass under the railway via a low tunnel - Mind Your Head - Follow the path over the footbridge and past the sports ground. Go through the gate, over another field and bridge. Cross the road and head right onto Holme Lane.

� Turn right and follow the road until you reach the church. Take the footpath through the churchyard and through a gate on the far side of the cemetery.

� Carry on with the hedge on your right to a stile then turn right, heading uphill towards a footbridge over the railway track.

� Turn left and follow the path through several stiles and gates until it brings you to Dale Hill where you turn right.

� At the junction cross the road taking the footpath that leads across six fields until you reach a pylon. Turn right and re-join the track that takes you back to the church where you can reverse the route back to your car.
