トッティントンのおすすめライド

A good find, tucked away on a quiet corner down a little lane. The brightly-painted wooden furniture contributes to an eclectic look.

The Green Parrot cafe in the square has good coffee and lovely cakes. Nice to sit outside on a sunny dau

Don't do what I did and try and cycle over the ramparts

The sign dubiously claims a max gradient of 15%. My Wahoo topped out at just over 6% which felt about right.

Not much visible from the road. Accessed by a gravel path.

the Deli is a great refuelling stop with really friendly staff. ( Closed Mondays and Tuesdays)

Wittles Cafe next door is probably a better bet for a mid-ride stop.

The remains of Thetford Priory a really nice and reflective space to end a tour... or start one. Thetford really is a gravel gateway with the Peddars and Icknield way passing nearby and the Kings Forest near Brandon. The Priory is smaller than the much larger establishment at Castle Acre but still majestic. The Priory of Our Lady of Thetford was one of the largest and most important monasteries in medieval East Anglia. Founded in the early 12th century, for 400 years it was the burial place of the Earls and Dukes of Norfolk, and enjoyed their powerful protection. It was because of this that Thetford was one of the last monasteries to be suppressed when it surrendered to Henry VIII's commissioners in 1540. The extensive surviving remains include the lower walls of the church and cloister, together with the impressive shell of the prior's lodging and an almost complete 14th century gatehouse. https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/thetford-priory/history/
