이슬리 주변 최고의 교통량 없는 자전거 라이딩 코스

표지판은 Otterbourne Hill을 오르는 길 왼쪽에 있는 벤치에 있습니다. 도로는 매우 붐비므로 자전거를 벤치에 두고 걸어갔습니다. 교회는 밖에서는 꽤 평범하지만 안은 평화롭고 고요하며 매우 흥미로운 역사를 가지고 있습니다. 교구장 및 학장 목록(1279년부터 시작!)은 매우 인상적입니다. 나중에 벤치로 돌아와서 사모사를 먹었습니다(Winchester의 역사적인 변두리에 있는 고급 상점에서 구입한 것인데, 솔직히 아주 맛있는 사모사는 아니었지만 즐거운 휴식이었습니다). 근처의 옛날식 도로 표지판에는 사우샘프턴까지 '8마일'이라고 적혀 있어 한 시간 안에 도착할 수 있을 거라는 희망을 주었지만, 실제로는 약 1시간 40분이 걸렸고, 최종 경로는 8마일보다 훨씬 더 길었습니다!

Watch out for the high tide. Need to swim to the ferry.......

As a memorial to the many dead, such memorials – usually called “war memorials” in English – are still very important today. “Now, Lord, you let your servant depart in peace, as you have said...” says the so-called “Hymn of Simeon” (Luke’s Gospel, Chapter 2, Verse 29). However, the people commemorated here did not depart in peace, but became victims of war and tyranny. This is why the term “dead soldiers’ memorial” is now sometimes used in German instead of the previously most common “war memorial”. However, such a war memorial, which one encounters so often on the road, regardless of nationality, language and name, is always a testimony to the horror of war and tyranny – still significant and current today. They all have two essential functions, and this is renewed for each generation: -1- Commemorate and remember the victims -2- Remind people to keep the peace

Lovely village pub to have lunch

This pub has a big garden and we stopped there many times for a break during a long walk through the surrounding countryside. Food and drinks all great.

Twyford is an attractive village of around 1,200 inhabitants just South of Winchester and just within the western edge of the South Downs National Park. The unspoilt surrounding countryside offers extensive opportunities for walking on the Downs or along the beautiful banks of the River Itchen.

This memorial commemorates the soldiers of the London Regiment, stationed here in the years 1916-1917, who were killed or missing in the Great War (World War I). There is a lot of history behind the stories of so many of these young men who left from here and didn't come back and the impact they had on nearby Twyford village.
