Ordinary village convenience store.

Good views from the higher ground with a fast drop down on a generally empty road.

Small cafe & farm shop with indoor and outdoor seating and a range of cakes and pastries to choose from.

Pub nearby for water fill up

The only café or shop along the Icknield Way in this area for miles, great place to refill/-fuel

Narrow, tree-lined approach to the River Lark. Thankfully the large asphalt quarry nearby is hidden from view!

The Venice of East Anglia!

Farm shop, deli & cafe, right on the Icknield way. There's outside seating and they were happy for us to fill up water bottles from the outside tap.

Rare thatched roof, on a prominent rise overlooking the road. Now redundant but can still be visited.

Ben & J.Lo usually stop by on Sunday lunchtimes for a pint of Best and a Cinzano Bianco.

Helpful landmark but otherwise nothing to say.

They also sell coffee & pastries. Outdoor seating available. Open: Wed-Thu 9am-4pm Fri 9am-6pm Sat 9am-3pm Sun 10am-2pm Closed Mon-Tue

Note: the highest *pint* not the highest *point*. To find the missing “o” go to www.komoot.com/highlight/1530035

Quality coffee, cakes, toasties & bagels for a snack or lunch stop. Open: Mon-Fri 8.00-4.00 Sat 9.00-5.00 Sun 10.00-4.00

Fast drop and a short but fairly sharp climb out from either direction. North side is slightly steeper but south side continues further.

Can't do better than quote the welcome from the Fox Inn's website, "Where the unique and wonderful gather to enjoy exquisite food and drink, spectacular music and a grand old time. It’s a place where laughter is not far away, where musicians and performers can play their craft and where new friends can become old friends over a glass of something wonderful." Quite a billing to live up too? You will find that the Fox Inn does so admirably. Add to this at 123m it is the highest point in Suffolk that you can buy a pint, with the county top itself (Great Wood Hill) only a few metres higher.

Medieval packhorse bridge beside the ford over the Kennett at Moulton. Still in use and bikeable (with a shallow step at each end of the bridge).

The Fox is a lovely and friendly pub. I enjoyed a fine pint of Greene King IPA which wasn’t a difficult choice - I was weaned on this stuff! There were a few locals already inside when I arrived and in the immediate absence of the Landlady, it was they who let me in and welcomed me. Others were coming and going and the atmosphere really was that of a public house in the true sense. With the sun streaming in, and a nice fire in the corner, it would have been easy to have stayed for “the other one” or two.

Great farm shop with a wide range of cakes, hot drinks, juices...
