This area known as Bolton Gate was named after the farm that used the grounds before the quarrying began.

It is a beautiful picnic spot.

Top Pool

Highlight • Natural

There is a lovely bench overlooking the pool.
I have no information regarding the unusual appearance of the water despite researching.
(It is in a sandstone area so maybe the sediment can take some credit.)

Hulme Beacon and Trig Point

Highlight • Summit

If you like bagging Trig Points, this is a very easy one.

You can park on Maiden Castle Car Park and cross the road, heading for the Beacon Basket.

This is nearby the Hulme Beacon.

Willot's Wood

Highlight • Forest

A bit boggy in parts made worse by the quad bikers but hindrances have been left across the footpaths to deter them 😉

Many paths to choose from and a few impressive dens too!

Park Hall SAGA Award Pillar

Highlight • Monument

I strongly feel that this was originally a toposcope pillar as it definitely seems that a disc has been removed.

Beautiful views over Stoke on Trent and seating is provided …
