MEADOWHALL TRAIN STATION
LINEAR WALK
Approximately 5 miles.
From Meadowhall we join the Sheffield and Tinsley canal for an easy walk to Victoria Quay. We pass 9 of the 11 Tinsley Locks, heading gently uphill at some of the locks. Between lock 4 and 5 is the looping canal boat (artwork).
These links give information about the canal walk and the artwork.

We will not be stopping anywhere for a drink on this section of the walk.
When we get to Kelham Island, our first stop will be at Riverside (see below for their address).
On 14/02/26 I walked from Bacon Lane Bridge to Tinsley to see the looping boat. I have not walked the other section of the canal route we will be doing, but it should be easy to follow.
CIRCULAR WALK
Approximately 2 miles. Kelham Island and Neepsend. I last did this art trail on 08/05/22. During the circular walk there are various places where we can stop for a drink.
