Lemons Hill Bridge carries the road across the northern end of Alton water reservoir. It links the two parts of Tattingstone village.

Trimley Marshes is a picturesque and diverse habitat located on the coast of Suffolk. It is made up of wetland, reedbed, and grasslands, which provides refuge for a number of wonderful bird species including marsh harriers, avocets, and bearded tits. You'll also spot some seasonal cattle grazing the grasslands too.

The best view of the upper part of Alton Water. A wide, fast descent to the bridge from either direction with a short climb out.

The road is a dead end but the lakeside view is very nice. Worth it if you want somewhere scenic to stop although not always very tranquil in the summer with the watersports centre, neighbouring campsite and playground.

the welcome cafe had great flapjacks for refuelling

Lemons Hill Bridge crosses Alton Water and links the two parts of Tattingstone which were split when the reservoir was created. A great number of buildings were lost. In the north is the village pub, the White Horse, a lovely place to stop, while in the south is an 18th century workhouse and the parish church. If you are running through the village keep an eye out for the red phone box which is home to a collection of audio recordings of people who were impacted by the flooding of the area to make way for Alton Water.

Rolling lawns, lakes and woodlands, Christchurch Park is a great place to find nature on a run in Ipswich. It opened in 1985 and has been a popular place for relaxation and activity since. There are pubic toilets to the east of Bridle Way.

The largest manmade reservoir in Suffolk, Alton Water is a tranquil place to whittle away some time on a bike Tour. It took over 13 years to construct the reservoir, opening in 1987. The waters' surface area measures a whopping 400 acres (160 ha) – plenty big enough to enjoy various watersports!

Scenic and peaceful place to stop. Even beautifully atmospheric when passing through in the pouring rain, makes a very wet tour more enjoyable.

Covering a 40-acre area, Bobbits Lane is a local nature reserve that has a wide range of plants and animals. Amongst the grassy fields and reed beds, you might spot otters, water voles, kingfishers, and egrets. The site is managed by Ipswich Borough Council.

Opened in 1895, Christchurch Park has served as a green recreational area for many generations in Ipswich. Amongst the rolling lawns and wooded slopes, you can find a play area, tennis courts, table tennis, an outdoor gym, bowling greens and Christchurch Mansion.
