Just beside John o' Gaunt pub - if you are so inclined.

Useful signpost and a choice of directions

This lovely crossing over the River Test takes you through beautiful countryside. There are several interlinking rivers in the area, so you can expect to cross a few more along the way.

Sorry I really don't like the Rodger Penny Way, as a local I try not to ride it anymore.. I'd go through Woodgreen, Lover, Passed Hampworth Golf Course, No Mans Land... much quieter roads... On the way back most of my routes go into Ringwood... and through the forest from there (I live near Lyndhurst)

The pretty, riverside village of Downton has a rich history. There's evidence of Iron Age, Roman and Saxon settlements in the area and the village was the site of both a Roman villa and an 11th-century motte and bailey castle. The Avon Valley Path long-distance trail passes through the village and there are plenty of places to eat and drink for that post-run refuel.

The Moot boasts the remains of an 11th-century motte and bailey castle, the earthworks of which can still be explored today. The impressive Moot House was built in the 17th century and was host to an earthen amphitheatre where many plays, particularly Shakespeare's, were performed. It all makes for an interesting detour when running along the Avon Valley Path.

Downton is a charming village situated along the River Avon. A Roman villa has been discovered here, and on high ground, the remains of an Iron Age hillfort are still visible today. Downton hosts the annual Cuckoo Fair which offers visitors some 250+ craft stalls, live music, and entertainment. With a brewery and plenty of facilities, Downton makes a great base to explore the River Avon and the New Forest from.

Lovely if the wind is on your bum. Good warm up before Farley mount rollercoaster 😂
