Lying in a rolling Buckinghamshire landscape of arable fields, pasture and woodland, Foxcote Reservoir is the kind of place that rewards patient visitors. Created in 1956 by damming a small tributary of the River Great Ouse, this site has become important for the numbers of wintering waterfowl, especially wigeon and coot. https://www.bbowt.org.uk/nature-reserves/foxcote-reservoir

Good dirt/gravel road between Buckingham and Bicester. If it's been raining a lot it can get boggy, but generally fine on a mountain bike with nice wide tyres.

Passes close to an area known as "Christmas Gorse". Mainly wide grassy bridleway, easy going in summer no doubt muddy in winter.

"The present church was entirely rebuilt about 1450, its refoundation being traditionally ascribed to the munificence of the two maiden daughters of the last Thomas Pever, who died in 1429. The only remains from the former church are the late 12thcentury font and some 12th-century moulded stones, re-used in the rear arches of the windows of the north porch. As might be expected in the case of a building erected at a single period, the whole work is carried out in a most complete and elaborate manner, and may challenge comparison with any existing examples of contemporary date in the country. The vestry, porches, and ground stage of the tower are fan-vaulted, and the design of the tower itself is especially remarkable for the boldness and originality displayed in the design of the two upper stages. The walling throughout is of limestone rubble, the south wall of the chancel and the walls of the original vestry being covered with rough-cast. The building was restored in 1882–7, when the vestry was enlarged by the westward extension, which touches the south-east angle of the nave."

Claydon House in a National Trust property from the 18th century. This Bridleway runs through the estate and past the house. The day we rode through they were filming, Pinewood trucks were all around and winnebagos were lined up for the actors and crew. We were still allowed to ride through without any problems. It's a beautiful place and worth a ride through for the views of the house and the lake. There's also a glamping site called Embers nearby if you are looking for a campsite to stay in the area.

Grebe Lake is a former clay pit which was used for the brickworks in the area. Today, it's a popular spot for fishing, boating, kayaking, and sailing. The lake borders the Calvert Jubilee Nature Reserve.
