Convenient refreshment stop on the main route through the village.

This ancient woodland was partly destroyed through construction of the reservoir. It is a neglected coppice of the Peterken Ash-Maple, Ash-Hazel, Pedunculate Oak-Hazel and Invasive Elm types but has been partly planted with conifers.

The church was built in classical style for the Normanton Hall estate on the site of a 14th-century building. Except for the tower, the medieval church was rebuilt in 1764 by Sir Gilbert Heathcote, 3rd Baronet. The church was de-consecrated in 1970, and was to have been demolished as part of the reservoir construction, as its floor was below the proposed water level. Following a public outcry, the lower half was filled with stone and rubble, and a concrete cap constructed just below the level of the windows.

Amazing place to walk no matter the weather no hills or muddy places, mainly asphalt. Plenty of places to stop for a break (coffee/tea/snacks) and plenty of benches if you have brought your own refreshments

Barnsdale Woods offers a little change of scenery from the open views across much of the route around Rutland Water. The ancient woodland (now partly replanted with conifers) covers 28 ha and is part of the Rutland Water SSSI. The wood formerly lay within a Medieval deer park.

An iconic and unusual Rutland landmark. Saved from demolition in the 1970's following public protest, the church now seems to float when the lake is full, at other times it seems as if the lower half has sunk completely, as though the church is too heavy for the ground beneath it.

Really nice little cafe and shop. Community run and very welcoming to cyclists so if your looking to plan a stop on your route this is a decent place to go. Friendly staff and nice coffee and selection of snacks, cake & breakfast rolls - request to call ahead on 07775649632 if you have a group order & are in a hurry.
