Coronavirus (COVID-19)

If you are planning on travelling distance to attractions, we would recommend that you contact the venues directly in advance to avoid disappointment.

If you, or any of your party have a new persistant cough, or develop a fever of 38C, we would instead advise you to use the NHS's dedicated website for professional advice.

Hobbs Quarry

Once a hive of industrial activity, Hobbs Quarry nature reserve is now a wonderful place to view unique geology and experience the fossilised remains of past animals and plants which exist alongside a rich array of current wildlife species. This lush habitat is great for dormice and birds such as the black cap, treecreeper, nuthatch, buzzard and long-tailed tit.
