Paddington has been seated on a bench on Fisherton Street, outside The former General Infirmary, sporting his signature red hat, blue duffle coat, and a marmalade sandwich in paw. Great spot for a selfie.

Pro Tip: Salisbury Navigation — Start Smart, Finish Smarter Salisbury is a natural waypoint on the King Alfred’s Way — a scenic and historic city, but also a maze for a tired bikepacker. Here’s how to avoid the common pitfalls: 🧭 Navigation Hazards: The city layout can be disorienting after a long day in the saddle, especially with phone fatigue, low battery, or GPS signal issues. Preload your route offline and drop a pin at your parking location or train station before rolling out. 📱 Backup Nav: Bring a secondary form of navigation — a small power bank, a basic GPS unit, or even a paper map. If you’re relying on your phone, make sure screen timeouts and lockouts won’t leave you stranded (ask me how I know…). 📦 Start/End Point Logistics: If parking in Salisbury, choose a well-marked car park close to a landmark or note the street name. Trusting “Find My Parked Car” or memory alone can lead to a post-ride goose chase. A hidden hero? An AirTag stashed in your car. 🚴‍♂️ Ride Timing: Salisbury is a great place to begin or end a leg — just be aware of city traffic and tourist footfall, especially near the cathedral. Early starts and twilight returns can ease your flow through town.

Perfect bike pit stop

The Woodford has a number of enjoyable winding country roads that are relatively quiet and well-surfaced and offer beautiful views of the surrounding countryside.

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.

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

Very useful water refill point with good signage.

Pub in a very pretty village with benches out the front to rest in the sun.

In the middle of the nave is the large baptismal font with constantly flowing water. It was created in 2008 by designer William Pye. The windows on the opposite side are reflected on the water surface of the baptismal font.

"Southwest of the [Fonthill Bishop] village, an archway with two flanking lodges spans the road to Fonthill Gifford. This entrance to Fonthill Park was probably built c. 1756 to designs of John Vardy; long decorative walls, with urn finials, were added on both sides of the road c. 1860. The whole was designated as Grade I listed in 1966." Cit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fonthill_Bishop
