Old Mill Lane

Highlight (Segment) • River

A lovely little quiet road that cuts out what is usually a really muddy section on the Upper Don Trail / TPT. If you're travelling west to east, in the direction of Sheffield, come off the trail just before the entrance to the Thurgoland tunnel (there's a little slip lane on the left) and then turn right over the bridge. The road decends steeply and drops into the upper Don valley, following the course of the river. The road ends at the T-Junction with Forge Lane by Wortley Top Forge Museum. The trail can be picked up again at Finkle Street, after the stables to avoid the mud, or you can take the road into Deepcar.

Bench at Trans Pennine Trail Junction, Oxspring

Highlight • Rest Area

A small bench at a TPT junction in Oxspring, near Penistone. It always feels like it's a good stop when I'm cycling to or from Barnsley. One autumn there were some wild tomatoes growing between the bench and the fencing behind it.

Penistone Market Square

Highlight • Monument

Classic south Yorkshire market town with a church and a pretty square. A few great coffee options depending on what you like, all of which are cycling friendly.
