New additions to this site for next month will be as follows.... FINDERN The pretty South Derbyshire village of Findern is situated five miles to the south-west of Derby. Its appearance is enhanced by a traditional village green with chestnut trees, encircled by white posts and chains and overlooked by the church and picturesque, mainly white walled properties. Before the Parish Council took action in the 1950s to restore it, the green looked a sorry sight divided into four small grassed areas, divided by tarmac paths and frequently used by vehicles.
FINDERN WALK This is an easy, flat walk, of approximately three miles in length. Nearly half of the walk is along the banks of the Trent and Mersey Canal, which comes alive with brightly painted boats at weekends and in the summer holiday season. The walk starts from the village green in the centre of Findern. The village is located just off the A38, south of Littleover, in South Derbyshire.
