Turner wood is a particularly picturesque place with the canal side cottages and the locks, there also seems to be a couple of resident Swan families too, a lovely place to ride or walk but there is a dismount sign in front of the cottages so please respect this 🙏🙏

This small ‘pop up’ cafe is open during late Spring & Summer time. She’s closed during the cold wet months of winter. Find more details on Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100043413387249
