The house you can see in the park is Philipps House. The house nestles in the steep wooded banks behind it and looks out over the expansive parkland. It’s separated from the park by a special deer fence called a ha-ha which allows uninterrupted views across the park and stops deer and cattle from into the garden. The house was designed by Jeffry Wyatville in a Georgian style with Greek-inspired columns supporting the large portico front. It was named Dinton House after the park for the Wyndham family. It was later renamed to Philipps House when it was sold to Bertram Philipps. In 2023 a 25-year lease of the house was conditionally sold for £2m. https://www.struttandparker.com/properties/st-marys-road-6

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.

Great Wishford sits in a meander of the River Wylye, beneath the chalk ridge adorned by the beautiful Grovely Wood. From the village, Grovely Road leads up to the woodland trails and is a good option for those looking to tackle some hill reps. According to an ancient custom, the residents of the village are permitted to gather firewood annually from Grovely Wood on Oak Apple Day, which is the 29th of May. The village pub, the Royal Oak, is a good shout for post run refreshment.

Grovely Wood is one of Wiltshire's largest mixed woodlands and there's loads of trail running potential here. Particularly beautiful in spring, the chalk ridge it woodland adorns is a delight all year round. This section is part of the Monarch's Way, a 625-mile (1,006 km) long-distance trail that represents the escape route taken by King Charles II after his defeat at the battle of Worcester.

The church of St Michael and All Angels in Teffont Evias dates from 1100. There isn't much on record to show which parts (if any) are this old, but there is evidence from 1200.

Very useful water refill point with good signage.

One of the largest mixed woodlands in southern Wiltshire, situated on a chalk ridge above the River Wylye. It is recognised for its nature conservation importance through designation as a County Wildlife Site. Among the species found here is the Purple Emperor butterfly.

The bridge was built in 1907 and originally called Posingford Bridge. It's thought to be the location where authour A.A Milne and his son first played the game so is a popular destination for fans of the books.

The Royal Oak open Wed to Sat 12:00 - 22:00 and Sun 12:00 - 19:00. Closed Mon and Tue.

Good beer and food, open normally all day.

Just past the gate there's a place to fill up your water bottles (it's all signposted)

Rutty climb but worth it for the view out across the valley.

On the site of an older house, Philipps House in Dinton Park is a neo-Grecian mansion built in the early 1800s. A grade II-listen property, the house is named for a subsequent owner, Bertram Philipps and is constructed from local Chilmark Stone. Once used by the YWCA as an artists retreat, you can now visit the park, which is under the management of the National Trust.

Great cyclist friendly pub and on great on and off road bike routes

Going from great ridge to the downs, there are a few trees down on the track. The path has been adapted..

A nice downhill run, rain has eroded has created a few little gullies in places so watch out for them and walkers.

Grovely Wood is the largest woodland in southern Wiltshire, straddling the Wylie and Nadder valleys. It is a recognised conservation site and boasts a lot of history. A Roman road runs from east to west through the heart of the woodland and two Iron Age hill forts, Ebsbury and Grovely Castle, lie to the north.

Fast and relatively smooth gravel road!
