Going to be visiting this small trail centre in a couple of weeks and looking for another few miles of natural trails in and around the local area.
Any one know any?

Lady Cannings is not a trail centre, just 2 (very fun) downhill trails and a fire road back to the top.

It is however on the edge of the Peak District so as much natural as you could ever want. How long do you want to be riding?

Just two blue routes, can have a spin down to the fox house and loop a few cheeky bits in.

But nothing I could put together without doing more road than I wanted to.

Have a look for Stange loop or Blackamoor, there was another thread recently. No need for excessive road nor cheeky trails, the BWs are all good. Did this one last week:

I think this is what you are looking for[url= https://www.v-publishing.co.uk/blog/v-publishing-blog/2017-05-16---free-ride-sheffield-mtb-routes-download-updated-may-2017.html#document ]VG Sheffield[/url]

There's loads of good trails around there without the need to spend too long on the roads or go in search of the cheeky stuff

My advice would be do LC a couple of times, go to the gate at the top, turn left and go down Jumble Lane to join the road. Turn right and 5 mins of road brings you to the top of Devil Elbow. Ride back up and over Houndkirk to get back to LC

This lap takes in LC's, Stanage and Blacka moor and if you miss out the bit through the Longshaw Estate (carry on up the road at the Foxhouse) should be 2ish hours.
