This tree is the oldest architecturally planted stands in the world. It was planted in 1793.

Stoney Littleton Long Barrow is a neolithic chambered tomb located in Somerset that dates back to around 3500 BCE. It is thought to be one of the best preserved examples of its kind in the country! Transport yourself to the past and discover its chambered interior, intricate carvings and ancient artefacts.

Kelston Roundhill affords spellbinding views over Bath, Bristol and Somerset. In clear conditions, you can see both Severn bridges, across to Wales and the Black Mountains, the Wiltshire Downs in the east and the Mendip Hills in the south. The countryside in this neck of the woods is magnificent; a picturesque and quintessentially-English patchwork. A superb section of the Cotswold Way runs over the hill, too.

Lively, not as previously described quiet and undiscovered place. Still, this green giant provides plenty of shade when it's hot.

Excellent views

The only hot springs in England discovered by the Romans. Very good audio guide with top restorations, but the highlight is the bathroom itself, very impressive to walk around on such old stones. It's easy to imagine how people used to enjoy the thermal water back then.

Fun little hill to run up. Amazing panoramic views

Erected in 1859, the Three Shires Stones mark the point where Somerset, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire meet. Although the marking is pretty impressive, it's nestled at the side of the main road, part of the Fosse Way, so it's easy to miss. It's said that the stones were once part of an ancient burial chamber.

couple of ways up to the top for some fabulous views

This neolithic long barrow is aligned to midwinter sunrise. For several days either side of solstice you can watch the rising sun shining down the central chamber.

Bath, or Aquae Sulis - the northernmost thermal bath of the Romans. With the weather you can understand why the Romans appreciated the warm thermal spring.

stoney Littleton long barrow

Magnificent Plane Tree in a secluded square

Worth the leisurely climb from Kelston or from Weston (Bath). There are a few gates to get through and climb over. Recommend visiting during quieter times of the day/week as it seems to be popular with walkers (generally polite). The route towards the Lansdown Golf Course has tall gates which you have to lift your bike over - not too much a problem with a lightweight bike. There's a signpost with directions to the local cheese shop and cafe!
