First Stop is Newmiller Dam
The meeting place for this visit is the car park at Newmiller Dam (SE 333158), which is south of Wakefield off the A61. Here we can access toilets and have a quick look at the dam. Then we will drive to a carpark on Seckar Lane for a morning visit to Seckar Wood. The area is a SSSI and has not been visited by our group. We hope to see Spring flowers and Summer migrant birds. In the afternoon we will visit Sandal Castle from where there are good views over Pugneys Country Park and surrounding area.
The walking is generally easy, but there is a climb up to the castle.
Leaders: Stuart and Gillian Tordoff.
