Castle Neroche is a significant historical site in Somerset, England, located on the northern escarpment of the Blackdown Hills. It is not a standing stone castle today, but rather a complex of impressive earthworks that reveal a long history of use.

great ride and stunning scenery

great bit of downhill

It’s re-opened as Street Bean Cafe.

Ditto on the rigid steel :-)

It's a good climb from Thurlbear Road, starting with a watersplash. Weekends will be busier with dog walkers and horse riders, so remember to let them know you're there before passing. There's also drop-ins from bandit trails crossing the path here and sightlines aren't great in the summer. After the well surfaced bridleway, it widens out into a newly made logging road up to Frost Street. It's also a great descent on a rigid mountain bike, but be like Shaw Taylor on 'Police 5', and "keep 'em peeled" This is part of the Herepath, a circular path waymarked and open to horse riders, cyclists and walkers.

Wide open fireroad descent with a couple of footpath crossing, then a steeper, well surfaced bridleway out to the road. Take this bit easy on a weekend as it's popular with horse riders and dog walkers; there's also some drop-ins from bandit trails crossing the path here and sightlines aren't great in the summer. A nice little watersplash finishes it off nicely before the tarmac. I rode it as a climb up through the woods, and it's great both ways.

Old style biking, swooping through the trees on a wide, grippy, fun trail. Heading East, it's a slight downhill, great on a rigid 29er, gravel bike or 'crosser
