The concrete outlet tower serves as the central control point for the reservoir's water supply. Connected by a bridge to the main dam, the tower houses sluice gates and valves that regulate the flow and distribution of water to the River Chew and the local water supply.

Great stretch of road, I know I am nearly at Bristol, or just getting started. Either way I cannot help but stop and enjoy the view, just stunning.

Don't let anyone stop you from swimming!

WELL! When I walked here, it was (genuinely) the muddiest hike I had ever been on! So, if you're planning to go & it's been raining a lot recently, be prepared for actual flooded fields! It is a really stunning place, so it is worth it, and usually, of course, it won't be flooded! But because it is low-laying, rainwater does accumulate in the fields around, just something to bear in mind if it is/has been very wet.

Chew Valley Lake is a well-known scenic beauty spot, top quality fly-fising destination and the fifth largest artificial lake in the UK. It’s also a haven for birdwatchers, with wildfowl and migrating birds often seen feeding in the reed beds around the water.

In the valley below Great Elm, a charming bridge crosses the Mells River, with a bench on the riverbank offering a peaceful spot to enjoy the views or take a refreshing dip. A layby on one side of the river provides convenient parking if you'd like to start your journey here.

It is not so common for a Christian place of worship – which encompasses the whole of heaven – to be dedicated to “ALL SAINTS”. Usually it is one (or occasionally two) named saints who hold the patronage of a church – and thus usually also of the parish or town in which it is located. But to find the origin of such a dedication, one has to go far back in history, because the model for this practice of dedication to ALL SAINTS can be seen as a pagan custom, according to which there were already central temples in pre-Christian times that were dedicated to all deities (PANTHEON). The probably most famous Pantheon, formerly a pagan temple and now a Christian place of worship, is located in the Italian capital.

Pensford Viaduct is a disused railway bridge. It was built in 1874 to carry the Bristol and North Somerset railway over the River Chew. It was closed in 1968 and is now preserved as a historic building. Great views of the viaduct can be had from Stanton Lane.

Beautiful Landscape & Walking Route Along River Chew Accesible From Pensford Bridge. Some initial parts of the path gets quite muddy after prior days of rain but can still walk through with boots. Best to walk after few days of dry weather.

Chew Valley Lake is the 5th largest artificial lake in the UK. It was constructed in the 1950s to supply drinking water for Bristol and the nearby area. There are brilliant views of the lake and surrounding countryside as you pass along the dam.

Beautiful scenery and smooth enough road surface

This is a beautiful and tranquil place to enjoy the outdoors. It is a great place to relax and unwind, or to get some exercise. The lake is also a great place to learn about wildlife and nature. The Lake is a beautiful reservoir and the fifth-largest artificial lake in the UK, with an area of 1,200 acres (4.9 km2). The lake was created in the early 1950s and was opened by Queen Elizabeth II in 1956. It provides much of the drinking water for the city of Bristol and surrounding area, taking its supply from the Mendip Hills. Some of the lake water is used to maintain the flow.

A thatched hexagonal toll house built around 1793.

The last of the pits in the North Somerset Coalfield closed in 1973. The former Kilmersdon Pit Wheel is a memorial to the miners who worked them.

Absolutely lovely, relatively flat throughout and is generally pretty quiet. Some areas have a few bumps thanks to roots and some parts during the wetter winter weather get a couple of centimetres of running water here and there. Overall one of my favourite places to cycle and will continue to feature on my routes!

Nice cycleway that follows off from Collier's way towards Midford and Bath. A few hills but nothing too difficult. Also very quiet but watch out for overgrowth in the late Summer!

Great views from this road on Folly Hill. Leads down into Midsomer Norton which has a few cafe stops.

Nice and convenient shop on route
