Italian gardens and nice cafe. Bikes welcome.

I don’t usually like audio guides but this was really well done. Interesting castle history, but also the characters and stories. And the chapel at the end is an excellent finale. I spent almost an hour here. No cafe but you can get tea/coffee/ ice cream. A good stop!

Grade II. 1443. Once within the walls of the castle. Victorian restoration

spectacular 14th C monastic Tithe Barn 51 metres long. English Heritage but free to enter

Nice coffee but cakes seem rather expensive

the point at which the Kennet and Avon canal crossed the river and railway line via the Aqueduct built by John Rennie & John Thomas between 1797 and 1801. Good pub here which will reopen summer 2025. This is on the main railway line now becoming a regular (request?) stop since 2011

Iford Manor itself was closed when I walked here, but it was such a lovely walk, I will be heading back to go into the grounds & onwards to visit Farleigh Castle when I have time. There is some really beautiful countryside all around the area, it's worth exploring

Fantastic village. Very picturesque

Fantastic new pub opened. Good atmosphere and worth a visit

A mill has existed on this site since Saxon times, when the original stone weir was built. Initially used for grinding grain into flour, it later produced woolen cloth and shredded fabric for stuffing. Abandoned in 1912, the mill was revived in 2002 when Rachel Feilden and Anthony Battersby purchased it. By 2007, they had installed a 55kW micro-hydropower turbine, restoring its use of the River Frome to generate power.

As water towers go this is definitely up there from an architectural point of view. The tower is complimented by a water hydrant be the side of the road. Not sure of it age or even is it is still in use. Historic England doesn't have much to say. https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1058129?section=official-list-entry

This is (I believe) the oldest Tithe barn in either the South West, or the county?! I cant remember 🤦‍♀️ so not much help!! BUT, it's definitely worth poking your head in, it is a lovely space and you can sort of feel the past, and I love that.

Cracking beer garden

A castle with a family history from 1160 to today. The family tree is simply gigantic.
