Beautiful day today - 22/02/19. Walked from home into Rotherham centre, then along the canal towpath, bypassing New York Stadium, Sheffield arena, finally into Sheffield Quayside, where a wander into the centre and around. Caught the fairly new tram train back to Rotherham, then walked back from Rotherham to home. Some really great spots along the tow path to stop and admire the views, or to enjoy piece and quiet.
