Nice village below famous and famously busy Diddly Squat.

Lovely pub with a large south-facing terrace at the front. Perfect for lunch in the sun.

Eastleach Turville is another charming Cotswolds village and is renowned for its bucolic beauty. It features typical quaint stone cottages and peaceful lanes, with a gentle river running straight through.

This is a pretty little ford in Shilton. You can cycle through the ford if the water is safe, or use the nearby bridge if the water levels are too high.

Personally found it quite alright on 28mm road tyres, just pay a little bit more attention to the surface.

As a memorial to the many dead, such memorials - usually called "war memorials" in English - are still very important today. "Now, Lord, you let your servant depart in peace, as you have said..." says the so-called "Hymn of Simeon" (Luke's Gospel, Chapter 2, Verse 29). However, the people commemorated here did not depart in peace, but became victims of war and tyranny. This is why the term "dead soldiers' memorial" is now sometimes used in German instead of the previously most common "war memorial". However, such a war memorial, which one encounters so often on the road, regardless of nationality, language and name, is always a testimony - still significant and current today - to the horror of war and tyranny. They all have two essential functions, and this for each generation anew: -1- Commemorate and remember the victims -2- Remind people to keep the peace

Quiet undulating single track road along the Windrush. Beautiful country side. The road is full of gravel and potholes. More suited to gravel and touring bikes than road (race) bikes.

Road surface good in the western half, acceptable but not great in the eastern half.
