RV and tent pitches behind pub. Agree about the shower block, new and well-looked after. Also four double rooms available at £75 a night. Pub open every day from noon. Kitchen open for lunch and dinner every day except Monday. Great base for exploring the area.

Campsite at the back of the pub. Great if your touring/bikepacking. Good shower block

Give yourself plenty of time to complete the walk. It started getting dark so instead of finishing we diverted and headed home to Bradwell. Not the prettiest or most scenic of routes as its mainly just field after field.

Great view across the estuary of the River Crouch and Bridgemarsh Island beyond from the high ground on the Althorne ridge. Best seen when heading west as road is often busy though.

Huge, elevated views from St Lawrence Hill northwards across the Blackwater estuary from Osea Island towards Tollesbury Marshes. Photos don't do it justice.

A short but sharp climb rising 25m towards St Lawrence Church with a max gradient of 13% near the top, just before the junction with Southminster Road. It's short enough that you can hit it full gas for a hill climb effort. Decent run-out at the bottom if you want to do a fast descent.

The parish church in the village of Steeple doesn't have a tower, it has...you guessed it...a steeple.

Nothing much to write home about but useful if you need somewhere for a break in the middle of the peninsula.
