シルチェスターでののおすすめランニングルート

Part of the Silchester Trail

This pond is nestled within the woodland of Benyon's Inclosure. There is an embankment with a track that runs across the pond offering a pleasant pathway to stroll out, take in the views, and observe the surrounding wildlife.

Found inside the lovely church of St Mary’s near Silchester. Nil desperandum - my new motto for hills

Alas, closed on Sundays, so I had to give up my coffee stop yesterday 😓

Nice break for Coffee & Samosa :-)

Beautiful little church on the edge of the preserved Roman town of Calleva. The church dates from the 12th century and was built on an earlier Pagan site using old Roman bricks. There is a Roman column in the cemetery.

Nice place to have a break if you are passing the Roman Silchester

St Mary the Virgin at Silchester sits at the top of Church Lane, a quiet single track road. This can get a little messy when the weather has been wet, with mud & debris running into the road and in parts forming two 'tracks' through the mud. Just be aware. Likewise, if you do have the misfortune to meet a car (or tractor) there is little room for both. In the summer months, walkers are often encountered walking in the middle of the road seemingly oblivious to anything else. The roman wall around Calleva Atrebatum is very popular, especially as you can walk on it all the way round. That said, I find Church Lane, Wall Lane and Clappers Farm Road, all of which pretty much come together at the church, to be lovely quiet roads to ride on. I do enjoy the undulating nature of most of the lanes around here.
