Sunday's walk: 10.5 mile GHB Ward walk from Longshaw


This walk is named after Bert Ward who was the founder of the Sheffield Clarion Ramblers in 1901 (which existed for 115 years) and became an activist for walkers' rights in the dark peak. He was given 'Ward's Piece' on Lose Hill by the Ramblers Association, and was involved with the purchase of Longshaw by the Trust - look him up online. The walk goes through his home village of Holmesfield.

The route is via White Edge Moor, Big Moor, Smeekley Wood, Holmesfield, Fanshaw Gate Lane and Moss Road. Mostly on tracks and moorland.

Death in Paradise - The Shack

 


This is a model of the shack from the TV show "Death in Paradise"


Death in Paradise is a British–French crime comedy drama television series. It takes place on the fictional Caribbean island of Saint Marie, a British Overseas Territory with a French colonial history.


I have a model of this building, and put the build up on Instructables and Make:Projects.


They can be found here and here.
