On the way to the pub I detoured through Rosehill Victoria Park
Did you expect more scenery? There wasn't much really although it is a pleasant park. It's mostly a vast expanse of grass with a few trees, and in one corner there are some flower beds, tennis courts, a kiosk selling ice cream, and a crazy golf course.
It was very pleasant to stroll on the grass after the shock of densely populated Sheffield and Rotherham. On the map Rawmarsh looks like it's in the countryside but in fact it's densely built. It's quite a contrast to Middleton even though it's less than 45 miles drive away, probably not over 30 as the crow flies.
So here I am enjoying the open space before plunging back into the traffic on the way to the pub.
