Can anyone help me please?
Am to attend a meeting to discuss a possible 'school walk' to look at historical sites on (or can be seen from) Wincobank Hill and Concord Park.
The walk will be supported by relevant lessons / activities.
My knowledge of the area is a little limited.
Any ideas please?
Thanks!

Have a look at this excellent website on South Yorkshire Forests:
http://www.heritagewoodsonline.co.uk/map/index.html
Wincobank is covered in there. Also Scholes Coppice (nect to Keppel's Column).
