A nice spot to watch river activity from

All cyclists are able to pass the toll bridge for free

Quite a flat road and peaceful too. Perfect for beginners

Amazing riding through here, totally surreal

Although most riders finish King Alfred’s Way in Winchester, I wrapped up my journey in Reading—making this stunning Ridgeway section into Streatley one of my final and most memorable stretches. The open chalk track offers incredible views over the Thames Valley, followed by a flowing descent into Streatley & Goring—an ideal place to pause, refuel, and take in the last big skies before rolling to the end. 🚴‍♂️ Fast but rideable chalk descent (even in damp conditions), watch for walkers and ruts. 📍 Café and rest stop options in Streatley/Goring.

There are records which suggest the presence of a bridge on the site in the 14th century but this structure was short-lived and crossing was made by ferry from at least 1379 until a timber bridge was built in 1767. The present stone structure dates from 1827. A toll was payable on both the ferry and the subsequent bridges until 1874 when the County Councils of Berkshire and Oxfordshire joined to buy the bridge from its private trustees and scrapped the charges.

Watermill was the setting for the 1st Black Sabbath album cover. Now open to the public on occasions it's a fascinating visit

Beautiful quiet country lanes through the Chilterns landscape between Sonning Common and Woodcote.
