Sutton in Ashfield to Pleasley Colliery Disused Railway Walk
A Pleasley Railway Walk. In this video, we walk the former freight and passenger railway line between Sutton in Ashfield in Nottinghamshire, via the site of the former Skegby Station, before reaching our destination of Pleasley Colliery on the Nottinghamshire / Derbyshire border. We finish off with some footage from above the former pit. This walk is known as the Skegby Trail.
