A very welcoming pub/brasserie next to sonning bridge. Very good for a light lunch while riding

Nice route for beginners

The church in Shiplake was dedicated to the two Saints PETER & PAUL, also known as the "Prince of the Apostles". Their common feast day in the calendar of saints is June 29th for all major denominations. * Simon, nicknamed Peter (Rock), was a fisherman on Lake Genesareth when he - together with his brother Andrew - was called by Jesus Christ to be a "fisher of men". In works of fine art, Peter is almost always depicted with two keys in his hand; this attribute refers to the Bible verse in Matthew: "I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." (Chapter 16, Verse 19). * Paul was initially an opponent of the Christian movement and was not called to the apostleship of Jesus Christ during his lifetime like the other apostles, but was only converted later with the famous "Damascus experience". His attribute is the sword with which he was executed. According to the Roman law of the time, such a sentence was a "privilege" (quick death and not, like other types of execution, associated with a long, painful death struggle) that was available to the citizens of Rome.

Right on the river, not always easy to get bikes into the garden (if gates closed use the car park)

At this point, you'll have some excellent views of the River Thames. You are on the Sonning Bridge, connecting Sonning with Sonning Eye. Right at this spot is the border between the counties of Oxfordshire and Berkshire.

Located very close to the River Thames is this church, known for its various church monuments and for being the successor to an Anglo-Saxon Cathedral. Although its two aisles date back to the 13th and 14th centuries, what we can see today is primarily Victorian, as a result of its restoration in the mid-19th century.

Lovely little church that's worth an explore in the town of Shiplake.

The walk along the Thames was a treat, and the return around the back of Sonning was also welcome on a hot Sunday when the centre of Sonning was gridlocked with traffic. An easy walk, not busy.
