Reading Time: 2 minutesContinuing to explore a little more, I have wandered down Meanwood Road this time, onto the bottom end of Woodhouse Ridge and the bottom of Sugarwell Hill. I found this old bomb shelter on the ridge – suprisingly relatively safe to enter (i.e not full …
Reading Time: 2 minutesI have been exploring more around Meanwood Park, now I live here again, and have found plenty of interesting corners I’ve not discovered before, such as the old Highbury Cricket Ground, and this amazing Boulder Gate up by the Myrtle pub. This has been a …
