The Dark Side of Milford - Heritage Walk

This walk covers Milford's west side (or the dark side, where the sun doesn't shine over the Chevin in the winter months) looking at the development of the housing, community buildings and the railway.

Find out about what it was like to have the Strutts as your landlord and why the community of Swainsley Court no longer exists, and where the people of Milford wanted their own railway station.

The route takes us up the steep Sunnyhill to Stephenson's tower and a short distance across the Chevin before descending down a steep and often muddy footpath. Walking boots are recommended.
