many thanks artdecoman. I wonder what about transport to city there? It looks like a bit further away from the city, almost as far as Dronfield. Is it easy to get to the city on a daily basis?

There are 2 bus services run by first & stagecoach 25 25A & 53. Means there should be a bus every 10 mins from Bradway. Or walk 5 mins through the wood to Abbeydale road south & get the Totley bus 97 or 98. Also option of train from Dore & Totley Station. Just building proper carpark for that.

where exactly can one walk through the woods? doesn't show a route on the map. Is it somewhere on Prospect place? thanks again artdecoman.

Yes at the bottom of Prospect place & corner of Queen victoria road, there is a path that brings you out opposite the tesco express at Totley

Depending where exactly you are, and whether you're prepared to walk through the muddy woods.

 

I use the train as often as possible. There are 3 between 8.00 and 8.30 which take only about 8 minutes, no other stops, and cost less than the bus. Returns are hourly about 5.12 and 6.15 from memory - not so frequent.

 

There are paths leading down from Roasmond Avenue and Poynton Wood Glade. I allow 15 minutes for the walk, but often go more quickly and usually do it in 10!

 

Bradway Action Group put in steps on the steeper path down from Rosamond Avenue.
