Cossall, Erewash Canal, Bennerley Viaduct Crossing - 04 March 2026

As with the previous Wednesday a good forecast but the early fog took time to clear leaving a blue sky spring day with warm sunshine for the group of 32 setting off from Trinity Farm in Cossall along the Nottingham and Erewash canals passing Ilkeston railway station on the way to the 'Iron Giant' Bennerley Viaduct with a crossing from the Derbyshire to Nottingham side using the new ramp just recently opened and passing the new - hopefully soon to be opened - cafe and visitor centre. Thanks to Alan for leading and the photos - post walk refreshments sitting outside the Trinity Farm cafe in glorious sunshine
