    Zoom in to see the beautiful cows with formidable horns!
    Clare N.

    I love it here. It's one of my regular running haunts and it has a great combination of road, gravel, grass, mud, ups and downs. Much of the running is alongside a river which winds it's way through the trees in sweeping turns. There are some unusual cows in a field near the a538 end and if you're into plane spotting its possible to run along next to the airport.

    Entering the garden!

    I have to preface this with with the fact we are national trust members which makes this trip a lot more affordable than the usual £17.50 you would have to spend to visit otherwise. Regardless, I really love this place. I like the starkness of the industrial building set against the beautifulness of nature. This place is steeped in history with the mill dating back to the 18th century. I have to admit that we've been twice already and not yet made it to the mill because we wanted to enjoy the weather and outdoors each time. The garden is fairly small but well maintained nevertheless and includes a vegetable plot, green house and viewpoints overlooking the grounds. Make sure to wear your wellies, it can get pretty muddy. There's a grassy area alongside the water where people can enjoy a bite to eat or just take in the view. There's also a cafe and gift shop to explore as well as a small playground area for kids. The toilets were immaculate. The staff we've come across here have all been super friendly. The car park is a little crazy busy and I can imagine it would be manic if you came at certain busier times. I'm already looking forward to our next visit.

    Manchester Town Hall - The Duke of Lancaster

    Manchester Town Hall is located in Albert Square in the city centre - it is home to the main area…read moreof the city's famous yearly Christmas Markets. It is one of the nicer, older buildings in the city being built in the mid-1800s and in many ways is your typical victorian building. It has been refurbished of late and the town hall now has a small Post Office in the annexe - it is also well located being right next to Manchester Central Library and part of it is also in St Peter's Square, which is one of the main stops on the city's light railway transport, Metrolink. It is still used today for various reasons other than the Post Office, it also is a small base for the police and it can sometimes be used for voting counting in elections, more notably the 2016 EU referendum where the United Kingdom voted by majority to leave the European Union. The guide of finding key areas of the town hall could perhaps be displayed better, especially when approaching it from Albert Square and St Peter's Square, being quite large it does stretch across both. A really nice old building in the city with some use today - as far as town halls go this is pretty cool. 4*

    Last night I was lucky enough to attend an event at Manchester Town Hall. It was Grant's True Tales…read more(http://www.grantswhisky.com/uk/truetales/about), and it was absolutely spectacular. I experienced a whisky tasting, some exceptional cocktails and personal, entertaining stories told by some very interesting people, including that lovely Alistair McGowan, one of the country's nicest comedians. But most of all I got to see the Town Hall, full access. We all know it's an incredible building, but ascend the stairs, see the mosaic tiles on the floor and the bees which adorn them, go into the main hall and see what event managers can actually do with the space. We saw logos projected on walls amidst the ornate windows, heard the soft buzz of the live music from the Food and Drink festival outside, drank some beautiful whisky cocktails and got to meet a bunch of like-minded people. Even if you're not someone who falls in love with buildings the way I do so quickly and willingly, you'd have to have a heart of stone not to be overwhelmed by the Town Hall. It's staggeringly big, as beautiful as any cathedral, and it's steeped in history that's practically tangible as you walk around. But the cherry on the icing? Even the toilets are stupendous! Adding a lovely lavvy into the mix just finishes it off now, doesn't it...
