Five Weirs Walk<br />
As springtime beckons, why not<br />
visit the Five Weirs Walk & Blue<br />
Loop?<br />
For those who don’t know the<br />
riverside walk along the Don, passing<br />
through the east-end of Sheffield,<br />
from Lady’s Bridge to Tinsley wildlife<br />
park, I can heartily recommend<br />
that you try it! For those who do,<br />
the approaching spring season will<br />
be a very good time to revisit - the<br />
flowers and birds may surprise you<br />
and the children will love it. There<br />
are interpretive boards along the way<br />
to give some information about the<br />
natural, social and industrial history<br />
(some are being renewed – after 20<br />
years’ service).<br />
Depending on the time you have, or<br />
the energy/shoe leather, you could go<br />
onto the Rotherham Centenary Park<br />
or turn around and complete the Blue<br />
Loop, back to town along the canal<br />
towpath. Both these treks are about<br />
10 miles, but there are numerous<br />

cyclepath. The walk has been adopted<br />
by the city council as a dedicated<br />
public right of way.<br />
The path was planned and built<br />
on a jig-saw basis, with each phase<br />
seeing different sources of funding,<br />
different landowners and construction<br />
companies and different opportunities<br />
and threats! We have a large group<br />
of friends who have been generous<br />
in so many ways – volunteering, fund<br />
raising, sharing ideas, spreading the<br />
word and supporting our campaigns.<br />
The final section, with the Bailey Bridge<br />
was opened in 2006, just in time for<br />
the floods! The threats at the moment<br />
include metal theft and fly-tipping.<br />
Working with Ground Work and<br />
the Environment Agency we have<br />
established a social enterprise - The<br />
River Stewardship Company, which<br />
has grown a sustainable business, to<br />
look after the river and canal and their<br />
wildlife habitats. The regular presence<br />
of the stewards reassures that<br />
seemingly remote spots are cared for.<br />
Working with the riparian owners<br />
