NIce spot to take on some water

Lovely valley road to ride through. Impressive posh school buildings in nice quiet road.

Nice test of strength, about a 7 minute climb

Britain's oldest working windmill, built in 1665 by Thomas Budgen and now a Grade I-listed building.

I actually made the monument to Paul who was a friend, fellow father (our kids went to school together), customer (Cadence) and fellow cyclist. I had seen a picture of Paul next to a mountain marker in the Alps which is where the idea came from. I no experience of using fibreglass but gave it a go, in my garage, stinking the whole place in the process! Thankfully, the local landowners gave me permission to place it on Beddlestead, a climb Paul regularly rode. It’s great to see it still standing and I remember Paul every time I ride by. For those of you who never met Paul, he was one of life’s gentlemen. He inspired a whole bunch of people in their careers, on the bike and on the rugby pitch. He is sadly missed but always remembered.

Outwood Windmill is a Grade I listed post mill located in Outwood, Surrey, England. It was built in 1665 by Thomas Budgen, a miller from Nutfield in Surrey, and is Britain’s oldest working windmill. The mill is a post mill with patent shutters and has four sails. The whole body, weighing around 25 tons, rotates on a central post made of a single enormous oak tree, to bring the mill round into the wind. The mill is still operational and grinds corn when the wind is adequate.

Nice climbing morning

There is also a nice bench to sit and enjoy the view
