A gentle climb to the viewing point

Small village really worth visiting on a bike tour with several nice houses.

Grade 2 listed . Designed circa 1841 by H E Kendall and built 1852.

I had a puncture around this location, where the road floods (as visible by the pebbles/detritus in the road). I recommend to *always* carry your bike over surfaces like that - not just here, but everywhere.

The "invention" of the prime meridian - or more precisely, the scientifically based division of the globe into degrees of longitude and latitude, with the prime meridian running at this point as the central orientation line - in the second half of the 19th century was an epochal masterpiece in the field of cartography and navigation, at that time especially important for seafaring. Even today, in the age of modern GPS navigation based on satellites orbiting the earth, the coordinates based on this principle are still used to determine locations. A film contribution (in German) from the recommended series "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity" explains the facilities in Greenwich, which are part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, and addresses the problem of longitude measurement that was solved there.

Haslingfield is a charming, thriving village in South Cambridgeshire. It has two beautiful churches, a number of quaint properties, and a pleasant, serene village ambience. The village easily dates back to mediaeval times, and even Queen Elizabeth I stayed here back in 1564.

Quite steep, badly potholed, loose gravel

A brilliant pub with great food on a really nice off-road route through this areas. Definitely worth the ride and stop to “rehydrate” and refuel. The tables outside are great for stopping, getting off the bike and recapping the ride.

A lovely Idyllic village green with Picnic benches Ideal for a stop if the weather is good.

A good coffee shop here

Good if you are in to gates

Good for food, but they don't take debit cards, either bank transfer or cash.

Great food and drink

A great little pub serving good food and drinks.

*The* way into/out of Buntingford north/south, if you wish to avoid the A10.

This cafe has now changed management and is called Waffle and Coffee. Still has bike racks and outside seating although I did not see the bike locks last time I was there. Staff still great and the food is even better. Bacon and egg sandwich is very good. Coffee, Tea and cakes and of course waffles. Good clean toilets so well worth visiting as a rest stop.

Currently closed (24th March 2024) while waiting for a new landlord to arrive. Check before you leave to maks=e sure its reopened.

Good pub for a stop - plenty of garden for bikes, plenty of real ales but no food just bar snacks. Also no tea or coffee last time I was there.
