Nice historic builing now hosting a restaurant/bar with a relaxed terasse on the upper floor. Good place for a break with a view to enjoy good weather.

This path follows the beautiful River Stort Navigation canal near South Mill Lock. It’s a lovely flat trail that offers picturesque views, conveniently located just outside Bishop's Stortford.

This is where we meet up for rides.

The River Stort passes through Bishops Stortford on its was through Essex and Hertfordshire from the village of Langley to the River Lea. From the town the river has been made navigable, known as the Stort Navigation.

Waterside Stortford is a 5.6km, flat trail which runs from Bat Willow Hurst Country Park to the north of the town, through the centre here, to just beyond Twyford Mill lock in the south. There are information points throughout the trail providing more information about the features of the trail.

The history of Waytemore Castle is shrouded in mystery. It is thought that it was a Saxon fortress built in the 10th century against invasion by the Danes but there is no record of it in the Domesday Book of 1086, a thorough survey and record of England commissioned by William the Conqueror after his victory at the Battle of Hastings in 1066. Now all you can see of the castle is the mound on which it stood and the stream to the south and west which would have been a much larger moat. The ruins on top are much later than 10th or 11th century. It has never been excavated for archeological research so who knows what secrets it holds.

A gorgeous park and green space for a pit stop, maybe a picnic, r&r and then get back on it! Coffee shop is close as well.
