The Friends of Bennerley Viaduct are dedicated to giving this "Iron Giant” a new lease of life after 50 years of closure. We are working in partnership with the owners to restore the viaduct and bring it back into use as a walking and cycling trail. This exciting and innovative project has the potential to make a real difference to the Erewash Valley and its communities.

Colliers Wood, created on the site of the former Moorgreen Colliery, is a flag ship site within the Greenwood Community Forest.
The site was seeded with wild grasses and flowers. Hedgerows and thousands of trees were planted. An extensive footpath network has been created using reclaimed shale from the site. Today the area is open to the public and its beauty attracts local walkers as well as an array of wildlife. For volunteer opportunities and events visit Friends of Colliers Wood
