シェフィールド・イングリッシュのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Lovely house and grounds to wonder pre/post walk or both. Great facilities with two places to eat and drink. National Trust members can gain access for free. Peak times and seasonal interests can be very busy.

Nice walk past the water Mill where you can either go left out into farm fields and into woods towards Shootash or turn right out go into Romsey through the Memorial Park.

Awbridge Nature Reserve is a hidden delight, definitely worth an explore! There is a stone circle here which was constructed in the millennium. The circle has 24 stones and surrounds a small barrow constructed of soil.

King John's House is a wonderful place to explore the medieval, Tudor and Victorian buildings. The gardens were officially opened in 1995 and are brilliantly presented, with colourful flowers and multiple benches where you can sit and relax in this peaceful garden. There are also tea rooms onsite.

The Sadler's Mill, which is now a private residence, has a varied history. First recordings of the mill are dated back to the 16th century and it was originally used as a corn mill. Lord Palmerston bought the Sadler's Mill around 1740. At this time, there was a mill for fulling (part of the cloth making process) and a mill for corn. In the 20th century, an electric generator replaced the corn milling, to act as a backup electricity supply for the Broadlands estate. Until the water flow was altered in the 1990s, this spot was a brilliant place to watch salmon leaping through the river, as they swam upstream to spawn.

The Romsey War Memorial Park is a lovely, relaxing place beside the River Test. The park was opened in 1920 after money was collected for a First World War memorial. There are various war memorials within the park and a bandstand in the centre. Facilities within the park include a cafe, children's playground and toilets.

Romsey Abbey is the largest parish church in Hampshire, and well worth a visit to admire the Norman architecture. The nave was built in the 12th and 13th century and consists of large Norman piers. Originally, the abbey was a nunnery, setup in the 10th century. Highlights include 2 saxon roods, a 16th century reredos and a tomb of King Charle's great uncle (Lord Mountbatten of Burma). There is no charge for admissions and open daily for visitors.

Mottisfont House is very near this and well worth a visit. If you go past this Phone box walking out of Mottisfont you can walk/ride along a lane which leads down to Mottisfont/Dunbridge train station which has a very nice pub next to it for refreshments.
