Southmoor Pumping Station is a historic pumping station located in Somerset, England, primarily designed for land drainage. It is part of the complex network of pumping stations and drainage systems that manage water levels in the Somerset Levels, an area prone to flooding due to its low-lying position.

It's a good climb from Thurlbear Road, starting with a watersplash. Weekends will be busier with dog walkers and horse riders, so remember to let them know you're there before passing. There's also drop-ins from bandit trails crossing the path here and sightlines aren't great in the summer. After the well surfaced bridleway, it widens out into a newly made logging road up to Frost Street. It's also a great descent on a rigid mountain bike, but be like Shaw Taylor on 'Police 5', and "keep 'em peeled" This is part of the Herepath, a circular path waymarked and open to horse riders, cyclists and walkers.

Wide open fireroad descent with a couple of footpath crossing, then a steeper, well surfaced bridleway out to the road. Take this bit easy on a weekend as it's popular with horse riders and dog walkers; there's also some drop-ins from bandit trails crossing the path here and sightlines aren't great in the summer. A nice little watersplash finishes it off nicely before the tarmac. I rode it as a climb up through the woods, and it's great both ways.

Closed due to pumping, bridge fenced off

Maunsel lock cafe is the only place to get a coffee on the canal

Nice cafe at maunsel lock

A fab little wayside stand with honesty box. Nice selection of cakes on a sunny Saturday, most welcome!

Rough gravel from the tops and then into forest floor for the last section - careful crossing the little stream at the bottom - Slippy!
