Great tearoom to have a bite to eat and/or drink during the walk.

Holy Innocents’ Church, Adisham

Nice road to cycle on, can get a bit wet but there are not too many cars and drivers are quite nice - occasionally there is a lorry going to / from one of the farms.

Good quality road surface through Bourne Park, with views of Bourne Park house. Relatively flat with a small dip towards the Bridge end.

Unfortunately now seems abandoned.
