Tarquin Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 Ok this post is not exactly about Sheffield but near enough;).Went for a walk today along the public footpath before you get to Birch hall golf club at Unstone(exit off Dronfield bypass,you come off the exit road and turn left & theres space to park your car on the left,many dog walkers stop there). Anyway got walking on the footpath with the missus & walked for about 40 minutes(up a very steep hill,path runs parallel with the Dronfield dual carriageway).Got to a right hand clearing in the woods & decided to go up it.We suddenly came to a big wire mesh fence with large barrels behind it & misshaped coloured objects hanging from string tied to the fence. Fresh tyre tracks in the mud:o.We didn't stay long;). We turned & went back down the hill with thoughts of the Texas chain saw massacre combined with Deliverance !!!. Well spooky.Anybodyelse been on this walk/know what this is ? Not advised to go up there walking it early evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woods are always spooky anyway, esp at twilight I thought maybe some walker groups may know what it was all about.Did a quick Google but no luck as yet.
