イクスワースソープのおすすめツーリングルート

Scenic road with a gentle gradient through Ampton Wood.

This was the original route from Stanton to Bury St Edmunds. The wooded parts are home to thousands of Bluebells in late spring.

Beautiful wide open space

This small village in Suffolk county has around 580 residents. It owes its name to its founder, Pacca, of Anglo-Saxon origin. At this point, we can see the village sign, featuring the images of its two most recognizable icons: its watermill and windmill. The village has a pub where we can make a stop to quench our thirst.

The Ixworth village sign that we see on this corner presents the context of this village throughout time. On each of its sides, we can observe a representative image from a significant period of history for the village and its community.

To get to the church, you have to take a small driveway from the main street, which will lead you to the church and a small churchyard with the War Memorial. Regarding the church, the tower stands out, dating from the late 15th century.

This is the older of the two mills in the village of Pakenham, the watermill. Not just in Pakenham, but we're talking about the oldest operational watermill in Suffolk. Currently, it offers guided tours, and you can even purchase the flours they produce on-site. More information at: https://pakenhamwatermill.org.uk/
