ハンプトンチャールズでののおすすめランニングルート

Lovely café with some riverside views. Literally 500 metres from Shropshire border

Little, though lovely town, on the border of Shropshire and Worcestershire counties. Very beautiful high street with some cafés

Good climb up out of the town from the High Street.

Great to stop for a coffee or lunch, plenty of pubs and little cafes on the high street. Pembroke House or the Fountain Inn have some really good lunch menus. If you fancy a hill challenge you can take the road from Tenbury to Clee Hill.

Surprisingly steep little kick (14%) on the back lane that dodges the main road.

Nice cafe with riverside views. Good food and outside seating if nice out. Plenty of bike space too.

Good place for refuelling.

Nice Tenbury Wells Town.

Bromyard is a beautiful small town. You can visit many nice places around the Town by choosing this route

Tenbury Wells is a small town on the Worcestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire border. The river Teme runs through it. there are a large number of listed buildings in Tenbury including several of the iconic 17th century half timber construction.

Strange buildings in the heart of Tenbury Wells! Built in 1862, they were designed by James Cranston of Birmingham, who apparently based the design on his own greenhouse! According to the website, "It was one of the earliest examples of prefabrication, with the sheets being made in Birmingham and assembled on site." The plan was that the waters from the well had "healing properties", so Tenbury might become another of England’s famous spa towns. Sadly, no - but now we have these awesome strange buildings!

This 16th century inn was the main coaching house on the route from London to the North. The name commemorates the escape of Charles II after the battle of Worcester when he hid in an oak tree.

There is the unusual Round Market, (which is actually oval in shape) built by James Cranston in 1858 near the junction of Market Street and Church Street. Originally called the Butter Market it was built to enable farmers’ wives to sell their butter and poultry inside, with walls to keep out the winds and rain.

A 17th century half timbered box construction residence. In the 18th & 19th century the building was known as the Barn and Barrel (a beer and cider house).

The Gateway to the town crosses the River Teme at the northern end of Teme Street. There has been a known river crossing at this point since the 13th century and the bridge has been strengthened and widened at various points during its history, one renovation said to be the work of the world renowned road and bridge builder, Thomas Telford. The bridge has an unusual bend in the middle, said to be an extension following the river changing course during severe floods in the 16th century. The bridge also forms the dividing line between Worcestershire and Shropshire, the border running along the centre of the River Teme. The bridge is a National Heritage, grade one, listed monument and during 2012 received its latest series of renovations and strengthening leaving it ready for service into the next century and beyond.

Tough climb. Next to busy main road.

Bromyard is an archetypal Herefordshire market town, famous for its half-timbered inns and olde worlde stylings. There is excellent walking on the nearby Bromyard Downs, a landscape of undulating gorse, grassland and woodland. The romantic Lower Brockhampton Manor House and its orchards and parkland is also delightful, just to the east of the Downs. Bringsty Common's sweeping slopes make for another picturesque place for a ramble. The Malvern Hills AONB are only a short drive away too.
