The old bridge is picturesque, and its also a great place to while away an hour or two by the river.

The folly itself actually looks like it really is an industrial tower housing mobile phone equipment, but the views are very good. Nearby is the Elephant Stone - it looks like an Elephant kneeing down. Not far from the Cotswold Stone drystone wall is the circular stone that marks the very top of Bredon Hill.

Good parking, half a dozen spaces on Woollas Hill, near Deer Park centre. Views on way up to Folly are spectacular. Good to get the climb out the way early with gentle, long descent in to Broadway.

Quiet Anglican church with some gorgeous mosaics inside. Nice brown signpost on the nearest A-Road, so you won't miss the turn.

St Mary's Church is a delightful little church full of character and historic interest, set in the picturesque Worcestershire village of Elmley Castle.

Park free at the bridge. Make sure you walk to Wick and back. Footpath starts at the old bridge, then across field to the village.

Kemerton Camp is a hillfort on the top of Bredon Hill in Worcestershire. With a steep escarpment dropping away on the north side of the Hill, it has two sets of ramparts and ditches to the south. The inner ramparts possibly date to 300BC. Excavations at Kemerton Camp in the 1930s uncovered, near the entrance to the inner ramparts of the fort, the burial place of some 50 slaughtered men, along with a great number of weapons. Are they evidence of a last stand against the Roman invasion, or of some internecine strife between warring tribes ? Adjacent to Kemerton Camp is a small stone tower called Parsons Folly (or the Banbury Stone Tower) which was built in the mid-18th century for John Parsons, MP (1732–1805), squire of Kemerton Court and intended as a summer house.

Parsons' Folly was built as a folly in the 18th century by Mr Parsons of Kemerton, it is 39 feet high, the summit of Bredon Hill is 961 feet above sea level thus making the top of the folly exactly 1,000 feet above sea level. Spread below is the vale through which both the Avon and Severn, on the horizon are the Malvern Hills.
