It looks a lot better than I though after looking at your photos.
Might have another drive down when it's a fine day.

That's the same place I parked, if you went down to the very bottom, past the boarded up working mens' club. The area goes from that car park right down to Foxhill Mill as was, and then over to the left is an access road that Dickens is reputed to have used when visiting the area (Dianne is more the specialist on that particular area). Within the boundary are two large ponds, on which has had a Kingfisher bank installed, and tinker brook wanders through the site as well. When the leaves are off the trees the site looks somewhat bare, but Spring through to Autumn a visit is a must. The last two pictures are of the gate you would have gone through had you parked up and just walked over the bridge.
