Sherburn in Elmet · 1 checked & stamped
Boots on. These are the Sherburn in Elmet walks worth the drive, with lead rules and livestock warnings marked.
Three hectares of magnesian limestone grassland on the escarpment above New Lane, dropping steeply to a wet fen and willow carr at the bottom. Yorkshire Wildlife Trust allows dogs but says they must be on a lead, and the site is grazed by sheep or cattle including rare breed white park cattle, so lead work is not optional here. Parking is roadside on New Lane only, and there is no car park, so on a busy Sunday you may end up walking in from the village. The circuit described here links the reserve with New Lane and the lanes back into Sherburn, giving a short low-level round of about two miles rather than the ten minutes the reserve alone would take.
