A local legend is that local clergymen used to preach from the bridge to local estate workers and hence its name. The bridge contains ornate ironwork, has been given Grade II listed status and has been restored to its former glory. The Jurassic Way passes beneath the bridge.

Great view but you will need to carry your bike over this bridge!

Not to be confused with the major Hertfordshire town to the north of London, the Northamptonshire village of Watford is known for the nearby Watford Gap. The Gap is one of England's major transport arteries due to its position through the ridge of high ground that runs across the region. There was a settlement here in Roman times called Bannaventa, which means 'gap in the hills' and it was on the route of Watling Street, the major Roman road. Today, there's a pub – the Wheelwright's Arms – and the surrounding Watford Park, an 18th-century garden cultivated on the site of the former medieval village.

It's perhaps not the most scenic place you will ever walk but Watford Gap has a certain charm for transport enthusiasts. Here pass the historic Roman Watling Street, the A5, the Birmingham to London railway line, the Grand Union Canal and the M1 motorway. The reason all these major transport arteries pass through here is because Watford Gap is a low-lying region between hills on the limestone escarpment that crosses the heart of England. It's a crucial link between the Midlands and the South East, with many citing it as the dividing line between Northern and Southern England.

This attractive Northamptonshire village lies on the route of the Jurassic Way long-distance footpath and is an important stop off just above Watford Gap. There are a number of amenities for walkers, including three pubs, one of which has rooms for the night. There are also bed and breakfast options and a grocery store.
