Walk near Grantham to celebrate summer solstice

By The Editor

18th Jun 2021 | Local News

Nature lovers are invited to enjoy a walk around some of the treasured beauty spots just outside Grantham to celebrate the Summer Solstice.

The one-off event starting from 8pm on Monday features a walk through Londonthorpe and the surrounding woods, finishing at Bellmount Tower to take in the sunset.

The short walk will include unpaved routes and steep inclines/descents by the Tower.

The event is organised by Reconnecting Grantham.

This is a four-year project funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

It aims to encourage exploration and engagement with the two adjoining sites through activities and events, informative interpretation and offering a wide range of volunteering opportunities.

Londonthorpe Woods, a rich habitat of wildflower meadows, lush open grassland, and broadleaf and mature woodland that's home to an array of wildlife, and the adjoining Bellmount have brought together the Woodland Trust and National Trust, respectively.

The national conservation charities have joined forces to enhance Grantham's natural landscape aiming to bring more people into nature, and to appreciate, value and protect what we are lucky to have on our doorstep.
