Description

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.
