A Walk Through Jesmond Dene

This lovely walk is just half a mile from Fiona's house so I parked the car at Paddy Freeman's Park and did a 3 mile loop through the Dene. Loads to see including an Old Mill and waterfall plus Children's Pets Corner at the south end of the walk. 
The Waterfall just up from the Old Mill 
The Old Mill
Plenty of old bridges cross the Dean so you can walk on either side of the river
The Armstrong Bridge where just over 2 years ago we were picnicking just next to these bushes when I heard a loud thud and we discovered a poor soul had jumped off the bridge. We never did find out if he was killed as a result of his fall but I can still hear the thud today.
