Very beautiful and pleasant

Steep Steps down to the river and for view of the aqueduct are on the Bradford on Avon side.

Riverside pub serving food and real ales

the point at which the Kennet and Avon canal crossed the river and railway line via the Aqueduct built by John Rennie & John Thomas between 1797 and 1801. Good pub here which will reopen summer 2025. This is on the main railway line now becoming a regular (request?) stop since 2011

From Bath to here on a road bike with 25mm is doable but take it easy, further on, its a little rougher and 35mm would be better. here is a good stop of lunch or a drink

Not Road bike suitable. Punctures likey. Verry muddy. MTB/Gravel bike fine.

Path unsuitable for Road bikes/Tyres. Gravel bike and MTB fine. High risk of punctures and muddy.

Amazing for autumn colours

This small footbridge over the Wylye connects Henfords Marsh with Eastleigh Wood Lane. It's likely that there has been a crossing of sorts here for a long time, although it may have been a muddy ford rather than a bridge.

It's not beautiful anymore.

Stunning, nice gently rolling gravel road with climb and descent options. If approaching from the east or the west (i.e. trying to stay on the hill to connect to Grovelly or Monkton Deverill) please be aware that the byways entering are not so much fun as the wood itself.

Who says England doesn't have gravel? (just ignore the Pertwood section). Sherrington wood/Great Ridge is a bit lifeless compared to Grovelly wood over the way, but offers a more durable surface to spin through.

While it is a gradual descent it remains pretty pedally for the first hundred metres. The rut isn't actually that deep its just hard to get going initially. Longer than expected. Get a bit of speed up and you'll fly through it. Only attempt this West-East or you'll be cursing your route planning. Couldn't see the track to the north so had to cross the road, nice easy drop off to get you going on the other side.

Upper Woodford is a pretty village in the charming Woodford Valley. The Sarsen Way long-distance trail passes through the village, while the Monarch's Way skirts it to the south. Walkers are welcome in the local pub, the Bridge Inn, which serves traditional pub grub, has outdoor seating in its riverside garden and has a wood-burner for those chillier afternoons and evenings.

If you are sensitive to stingers, watch out for this one. It's a gradual descent so you can easily pick up speed on this narrow section. Enjoy the smells as you jostle past all the plants!

The cloister is a highlight The baptismal font and the courtyard are very beautiful
