스토위-서튼 주변 최고의 그래블 라이딩 코스

Absolute cracker! Wide, potentially muddy, double track leading to narrow but glorious single track through to Hen Lane.

The nine-legged wooden lighthouse was built in 1832 and is a Grade II Heritage listed structure.

Now actually added to OpenStreetMap and hence Komoot. Lovely cut-through when it's dry, probably muddy when wet.

Lovely but horrible road surface

Update April 2025 - the craters have now been filled in with hard pack gravel. Very much rideable on a road bike of any tyre size without needing to be too concerned about punctures.

Monkton Combe is a beautiful and charming village just south of Bath. It has a stunning Norman Church, St Michael’s Church, the obligatory public house, and an old-fashioned ‘village lockup,’ where they used to detain the less sober of the village inhabitants. What is most interesting is that the churchyard contains the grave of Harry Patch, the last surviving British soldier who fought in the First World War. It is well worth having a brief stop here.

The tunnel lights were designed so you can see while not disturbing the bats. People using bright lights risk disturbing the bats and blinding other users. While you may feel using lights improves your ability to see and be seen they distract other users making it more difficult to see walkers, dogs etc.

The tunnel lighting was upgraded in late 2023 and you can now easily see other riders, runners or pedestrians, so you do NOT need dazzling front lights any more. In the interests of safety and to avoid accidents PLEASE dim or dip your light when in the tunnel!
