Plenty of cafes nearby

Scenic bridge providing a quiet route over the Welland into Deeping.

I went very early spring and it was quite pretty, interesting for the ride, certainly stopped the wind cutting across the fields

Bakery just across the road who sell nice pasties, tea and coffee. Pub on the other corner with toilets and good beer. Worth a rest stop. Busy little village and cross roads.

There are 2 pubs near the bridge and a couple of cafes in village centre within 1/4 mile. Get a coffee and sit by the river for a good rest stop.

This is an excellent traffic-free cycle path that runs along the River Great Ouse into Kings Lynn. This section traces a wide part of the Great Ouse, close to its mouth at The Wash where it drains into the North Sea. It's the longest of several British rivers called "Ouse", flowing through Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Norfolk to its source in Syresham in Northamptonshire.

Anglian Water's Chapelgate Water Tower (also know as Gedney Water Tower) is a striking 1980s design which can be seen for miles around in the flat local landscape. It holds 1.4 million litres and also serves as a phone mast.

St Mary's Church is known for its unusual 13th-century lead-covered timber spire similar in design to Chesterfield Parish Church's twisted spire (but this one is straight). The church is a Grade I listed building and spire is 149 feet (45 m) high.

St Mary Magdalene Chruch is a large medieval church primarily built in the Perpendicular Gothic style. It's known as 'the Cathedral of the Fen's, and is an impressive Grade I listed building.

Daffodil Walk is a well-surfaced traffic-free footpath and cycleway that runs along the track bed of the former Spalding to Boston railway line. It is also part of the Vernatts Nature Reserve.

This is an excellent segregated traffic-free cycle path between Sutton Bridge and Kings Lynn. Look out for the type 22 hexagonal pillbox with integral entrance porch from WW2.

Cross Keys Bridge is a grade II listed swing bridge at Sutton Bridge which spans the tidal River Nene. It's the only crossing point for both traffic, pedestrians and cyclists over the river north of the Wisbech, 9 miles (14.5 km) to the south. For this reason it's a notorious bottleneck for vehicles. On the north side is a separate bridge for cyclists and pedestrians, with expansive views over the tidal Nene.

All Saints' Church in Holbeach was built in the 14th century. It features a sturdy tower and tall spire. The north porch has two circular flanking turrets with battlements that make it look like a castle gateway.

Christchurch is a Grade II listed building made from yellow and red brick. It's a unique looking church built in 1869 set in the remote hamlet of Gedney Dawsmere, close to The Wash.

Excellent gravel track between Crowland and Peakirk, which is part of NCN 12.

Middle Marsh Road is a typical straight Lincolnshire lane, which cuts through a wide open flat landscape. With huge skies, these quiet roads are pleasant to cycle along, particularly when the sun is rising or setting. This forms part of National Cycle Network route one, a long distance cycling route based mainly along or near the east coast of the UK.

Interesting building, with a church built into the ruined remains of the older abbey that was dissolved by Henry VIII.

Shows how much the fens have been re-engineered that the river this bridge once spanned is now over a kilometre away!

Enjoy a beautiful section of cycling along Trinity Road. To your left you'll find perfect rows of planted trees, and to your right, endless expanses of neat farmland.

Take care here. The bridge has a blind crest and is narrow (cars width) so be prepared to stop and don't try and squeeze by
