The church in Shiplake was dedicated to the two Saints PETER & PAUL, also known as the "Prince of the Apostles". Their common feast day in the calendar of saints is June 29th for all major denominations. * Simon, nicknamed Peter (Rock), was a fisherman on Lake Genesareth when he - together with his brother Andrew - was called by Jesus Christ to be a "fisher of men". In works of fine art, Peter is almost always depicted with two keys in his hand; this attribute refers to the Bible verse in Matthew: "I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." (Chapter 16, Verse 19). * Paul was initially an opponent of the Christian movement and was not called to the apostleship of Jesus Christ during his lifetime like the other apostles, but was only converted later with the famous "Damascus experience". His attribute is the sword with which he was executed. According to the Roman law of the time, such a sentence was a "privilege" (quick death and not, like other types of execution, associated with a long, painful death struggle) that was available to the citizens of Rome.

Binfield Heath Church (also known as Binfield Heath Chapel) is an independent evangelical church. It was built in 1835 for the Congregationalists as the village of Binfield Heath was growing in the early 19th century. What makes this church unusual is that it was built in the Gothic style, which, for churches built at that time, is atypical.

It is your peaceful farmland here, and in the summer, the green barley fields combined with the trees on the edges of the fields will give you a bit of a green attack! There is something about barley fields that is more aesthetically pleasing than other fields - maybe it's just me!

This area is a number of different woods, including Bones Wood and Gillsmithers Wood. It's a large enough area to be able to lose yourself amongst the tall beech trees, and be (mostly) cut off from the noise of the roads. Towards the north of the segment, there are remains of an old quarry in the forest - see if you can spot them!

Crowsley Park is owned by the BBC as a receiving station. There are satellite dishes dotted around the estate. The mansion house dates from the 18th century and some say it has a link to Arthur Conan Doyle's Hounds of the Baskervilles. The owner of the House, Henry Baskerville, was known to Conan Doyle, as well as his menacing reputation.

Lovely little church that's worth an explore in the town of Shiplake.

Combining Post Office and stores, this little place is perfect to re-stock on snacks and drinks mid-ride, or to grab a coffee (or cup of tea, if so inclined) and a sausage roll. Three tables with benches outdoor provide the perfect spot to keep an eye on your steed while consuming your well-earned food in a socially-distanced way before resuming your ride.

Not a Church of England building, this independent evangelical church Chapel was opened on 25 August 1835, under a Countess of Huntingdon Connection (see:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countess_of_Huntingdon%27s_Connexion). Some land was bought in 1833 to “provide a place of public worship and burial ground for protestant dissenters”. The building cost about £300 which was donated by Sarah Adams, a wealthy widow from Reading. Cit. https://www.binfieldheathchurch.org.uk/history/
