Ripley Railway Path and Countryside Site

The site was created by the reclamation of the disused Ripley Colliery and Ripley branch railway between 1974 and 1977 to give a linear route with adjacent areas of open greenspace and plantations at Ripley and Marehay.

The main linear path was subsequently improved and the Greenway now has a tarmac surface and street lighting from Outram Street south to Lumb Farm. Various items of community artwork are installed along the route.
