Opened this year at a cost of over £15 million - Wicker Man is one amazing ride. A fast wooden coaster that really packs a punch themed around old rituals in English history. The whole park is a coaster lovers dream and really needs a full day to appreciate everything it has to offer.

The Potteries Museum and Art Gallery
This amazing Victorian garden was created by James Bateman for his collection of plants from around the world. A visit takes you on a global journey from Italy to the pyramids of Egypt, a Victorian vision of China and a re-creation of a Himalayan glen. The garden features collections of rhododendrons, summer bedding displays, a stunning Dahlia Walk in late summer and the oldest surviving golden larch in Britain, brought from China in the 1850s. The Geological Gallery shows how Bateman's interests went beyond botany. Opened in 1862 the unique hallway is a Victorian attempt to reconcile geology and theology. There are narrow gravel paths and over 400 steps throughout the garden.

This is an old knackered shed in a field in Uttoxeter next to the A50. Unfortunately it's been taken down. So glad I photographed it whilst I could.

Uttoxeter

Quixhill Bridge The bridge was built in the early 19th century to replace a ford. It was on one of the salt routes from Nantwich to Derby via Ellastone.
