サウスケンブリッジシャーでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

Mainly gravel surfaces. Dry in the summer but certain sections can be muddy after rain.

Grade 2 listed . Designed circa 1841 by H E Kendall and built 1852.

The largest Walled garden with fruit trees, vegetables and flowers. Photos don’t do it justice.

National trust member goes free

In 1934 Baron Fairhaven purchased the mill and added it to the Anglesey Abbey estate, and subsequently restored it to working order as a corn mill. It could no longer be worked when the National Trust took over the estate in 1966, but in 1978 the Trust with the Cambridgeshire Wind and Water Mill Society, began to restore the building and the equipment, and by 1992 it was again producing flour. The mill is conventional arrangement with a wide undershot wheel driving stones through a pit wheel, a wallower, a vertical shaft and a spur wheel. On the top floor is a hoist for raising sacks of grain that can be fed to the stones. The mill produces both wheat and oat flour that is sold in the mill shop.

Go inside the milll, open daily

Parking is £2. There is a portaloo and a bin in the carpark. This hike was limited in what you could see, in August the trees and weeds blocked most of the view. For safety note that the pathway takes the narrow road that cars are entering and exiting. There are two crossings over the guided path where the buses are traveling at speed. The first part of the walk by the Ouse was lovely as was the last part on a field where you ton off by the weight limited bridge. I would imagine in winter the path would be a mush pit.

Near the crest of the Gog Magog Hills just south of Cambridge. Fast traffic on the short dual carriageway section past Wandlebury but there is a shared cycle path if you prefer.
