Nice historic builing now hosting a restaurant/bar with a relaxed terasse on the upper floor. Good place for a break with a view to enjoy good weather.

An unrelenting climb eastbound, no "shelves" or "tiers" to the land, nothing. Non-stop climb. Easy breeze westbound. East of here is regular rolling country.

This path follows the beautiful River Stort Navigation canal near South Mill Lock. It’s a lovely flat trail that offers picturesque views, conveniently located just outside Bishop's Stortford.

The road fords the River Ash here near Hadham Cross. There is a footbridge for pedestrians or cyclists who don't want wet feet.

Excellent takeaway for baguettes, cakes, coffee etc. A few outside benches opposite.

This was my destination pub on my ride, a nice old-school pub with decent beers and lovely-smelling food (I was on the S&V crisps myself). Very friendly and lovely old houses in an old looking street. Apologies for my stealth interior photo, is was small and busy and felt a bit weird talking a picture inside :)

Have to get off your bike for this one

We got to meet a beautiful black-and-white horse that took an interest in us as we passed

Beautiful spot to stop on the bridge over the pond. Only a small wooden bridge but quaint.

excellent Cafe and store at Wadesmill

Don't fear to cross it.

River, sheep and ducklings. Great place for a break, seems popular with cyclists and walkers.

After plenty of rain, good for washing the bike

Bishop's Stortford is a large commuter town that expanded rapidly from the Second World War onwards. It's home to the motte-and-bailey castle remains of Waytemore Castle, which stand above the River Stort in the centre of the town. Being an important market town, there are many old pubs, including the timber-framed, 16th-century Black Lion.

Much Hadham is one of the oldest and prettiest villages in Hertfordshire. It boasts no less than four Grade I-listed buildings: St Andrew's Parish Church, Much Hadham Hall, Moor Place and the boundary wall at Yewtree Farmhouse at Hadham Cross. If you're seeking food while on a hike here, there's the Bull Inn or the Hoops Inn at the nearby hamlet of Perry Green, home to the Henry Moore Foundation Estate. There's also a local convenience store on the main Tower Hill road.

Henry Moore was one of the world's greatest sculptors, creating many celebrated monumental bronze artworks. Before his death in 1986, he lived here in Perry Green. The site has since become the Henry Moore Studios and Gardens, boasting over 70 acres (28 ha) of sculpture gardens and rolling fields. Here, you can see some of his greatest works, though you'll have to buy a ticket. Dogs are not allowed in the gardens unless they are assistance dogs.

Nestled to the north of the River Rib, Wadesmill is a pleasant Hertfordshire village. Nearby is the pretty Youngsbury Estate, which boasts countryside so lovely that even the legendary Capability Brown remarked that he needed to do nothing to improve what nature had already brought into being. If you are walking in the region and require a refuel, the Feathers, a former 17th century coaching inn, serves good food. The Inn is also home to a 30 bedroom hotel.
