Supporting the Saturdays-only limited train service on the Brigg Line, we walk out of Brigg along the River Ancholme to Cadney Bridge, head over to Hibaldstow then follow cross-field footpaths to visit Mount Pleasant windmill at Kirton-in-Lindsey.
Sadly it lost its sails in a gale late last year. However, we are always made welcome at their delightful tearoom!
Then follow the public footpath down the hill leading direct into the station in good time to catch the return train to Sheffield departing Kirton in Lindsey at 16.02.

Depart: Sheffield Midland 08.03, Worksop 08.33, Retford 08.44, Gainsborough Central 09.00,
