Who says England doesn't have gravel? (just ignore the Pertwood section). Sherrington wood/Great Ridge is a bit lifeless compared to Grovelly wood over the way, but offers a more durable surface to spin through.

The bridleway climbs from around 100 m above sea level in Fonthill Bishop up to just over 150 m where it joins the road at Ridge. Underfoot it's a gravelly, stony track which gets muddy sometimes, it's easy to run on and fun either in ascent or descent. Great views as it follows the edge of the hill and woodland.

Fonthill Lake is part of the Fonthill Estate, which dates back to 1533. The lake is natural but has been landscaped over the years and used to power mills as well as for pleasure. Today it's a great place to run, with a footpath along the western shore.

The church of St Michael and All Angels in Teffont Evias dates from 1100. There isn't much on record to show which parts (if any) are this old, but there is evidence from 1200.

nice start and stop at Bird&Carter

"Southwest of the [Fonthill Bishop] village, an archway with two flanking lodges spans the road to Fonthill Gifford. This entrance to Fonthill Park was probably built c. 1756 to designs of John Vardy; long decorative walls, with urn finials, were added on both sides of the road c. 1860. The whole was designated as Grade I listed in 1966." Cit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fonthill_Bishop
