Newmillerdam Country Park.

Newmillerdam Country Park, Wakefield, Yorkshire.

Just a quick post about a pleasant spot to have an afternoon stroll.  My husband and I visited Newmillerdam Country Park on a sunny afternoon and took a few pictures.

As I was taking these photos, I was a little concerned at the overly friendly ducks and geese. (I'm a bit of a scaredy cat) My husband has decided he will be coming here as part of his training for the Chester Marathon in October.

We ate at the reasonably priced Fox and Hound, which is across from the Newmillerdam car park. I had a chicken, bacon and barbecue sauce baguette, and my husband had a delicious (I wished I had picked this) pork and stuffing sandwich with a separate gravy boat and perfectly seasoned potato wedges (the ones I managed to prise away from him were just scrummy!)

There is also a cute little Italian that we are planning on going to next time. I think the building looks like a little castle and inside seems to have a cosy, intimate feel. We will let you know what we think when we go.
