Dist:0.4km<br/>Somersal Herbert hall was built in 1564 and incorporates an older building dating from around the year 1500 AD. Somersal Hall is a private residence not open to the public. The small village of Somersal Herbert is centred upon a crossroads and the hall is in the southwestern quadrant. Just up the road from the hall is the village church. Somersal Herbert Hall is adjacent to [[46040]]. See also this photograph by Oliver Dixon, [[200476]].

Dist:0.9km<br/>"Chinese" writing on the fingerposts seems to be a feature of rights of way in Derbyshire. Low branches over the bridleway suggest that it is probably not much used by horses.
