ブランタムのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

スタウア川を見下ろす景色

There are guided tours available in the holiday season which you can pick up from Flatford Cottage where there is also a pretty decent cafe and a picnic area. Boats are also available for hire and there are short boat tours that will take you on the beautiful Stour as far as Dedham.

This wonderfully picturesque spot on the River Stour was immortalised by John Constable's famous 1817 painting 'Flatford Mill'. This was the largest of Constable's great exhibition pieces to be painted primarily outdoors, during the summers of 1816 and 1817. Today, it's still a lovely place to wander, right in the heart of the Dedham Vale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The Flatford Granary stored grain until the 19th century when flour milling became profitable. Owned by Golding Constable, it passed to his son Abram and was eventually sold to William Bentall in 1846.

This is a beautiful path that hugs the edge of the River Stour near Stutton.

A long, traffic-free, grassy byway leads from Sutton Road to the River Stour via the railway line.
