Saltwells Local Nature Reserve

This was a totally unexpected surprise. We came about this place by accident, we were just killing time and looking for somewhere to go whilst waiting to collect friends from nearby Cradley Heath. It was the last sort of place I expected to find in such an industrial area. It is partly located along the length of an old railway track with various side trails and circular paths, mostly going through wooded areas. There are many sculptures and carvings dotted all over the place. If it wasnt for the sound of traffic in the distance, you could be in the heart of the countryside. There are many level paths suitable for most people. Some of the routes are colour coded and have various lengths. An information board in the main car park tells you more information. My only criticism is that I wish the lazy dog owners who let thier dogs poop on the main footpaths would pick up the mess!
