Stroud Brewery is located alongside the T&S canal, which makes this an ideal stop for a drink and something to eat. I wouldn`t say this place is cyclist hostile, more cyclist unfriendly. Let me explain, on arriving from canal side, bikes were put in the adjacent garden (not creating a trip hazard) , which attracted the attention of one of the staff who requested they be moved to the bike rack at the front of building. So that's completely out of view to everyone. Other cyclists placed bikes under the stairs, which this member of staff complained was blocking a fire exit.

A little difficult to find, but if you can move freely across the meadows with GPS, you will also find the source of the Thames.

The source of the Thames is a little difficult to find because it is in the middle of cultivated meadows. We had to take a little detour because there were huge combine harvesters driving right through the meadows. However, once you cross the field, you will find a fenced-in area where the spring is marked. We were there in midsummer, so there was no water bubbling here. Another new experience: a spring without water.
