フェルステッドのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Bannister Green Halt was sited on the up side of the line and consisted of a clinker platform with timber facing raised to rail level; it was attended by staff from Felsted or Rayne Stations. It was one of two halts built by the GER in 1922 to attract passengers to the railway and counteract the then recently introduced bus service. Passengers joining or alighting at the halt were required to use retractable steps mounted by the side of the coach and operated by the guard.

Former halt on Flitch Way railway route. Great for a gravel bike ride!

Typical scenic view along The Filtch Way

Running for 15 miles between Bishop's Stortford and Braintree, the Flitch Way is totally traffic free and very flat. It is a fantastic place to hike with a good surface. The railway was opened in 1869 but closed 83 years later in 1952. It continued to operate for freight only until 1972. There is a cafe, toilets and visitors centre to the east of here at Rayne.

Pleasant little cafe but only limited space, indoors and out, and no space for bike parking so best for only a couple of riders - larger groups, go elsewhere. Cakes and drinks only.

You can’t see the priory buildings from the road but the lanes leading too it are pretty nice!

No longer a working mill, now a private residence.

An Augustinian Priory until dissolution in 1556 - much of the original buildings still remain. Well worth a stop and walk around the grounds.
