물스포드 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

강과 운하가 이 땅을 가로지르는데, 이는 산업화 초기 시대에 교통 인프라의 매우 중요한 부분이었기 때문입니다. 결국 공장에서는 이전에는 알려지지 않았던 엄청난 양의 원자재를 공급받아야 했고, 완제품도 상인에게 전달되어야 했습니다. 많은 운하가 이 시대에 만들어졌습니다. 이후 철도가, 그리고 나중에는 트럭이 상품 운송을 담당하게 되었습니다. 인공 수로를 건설하고 강을 항해 가능하게 만들 때, 고도 차이를 극복해야 한다는 점을 항상 고려해야 했기 때문에, 운하와 강을 따라 상황에 따라 크고 작은 간격으로 수문이 늘어서 있습니다. 수문의 도움으로만 선박 운항이 가능했습니다.

A church was recorded here in the the Domesday Book (1086) but the oldest surviving part of the current church is the 15th century west tower. In 1864–65, the main body of the church was almost entirely rebuilt by architect Charles Buckeridge in a neo-Gothic style. During this work, original 13th-century flint and stone were reused.

The Church of St Thomas of Canterbury in Goring-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, as origins dating back to around 1100. The church is known for its Norman architecture.

Despite the fact that it's a smart restaurant, the staff are equally welcoming to wet and muddy hikers!

A typical, small English place on the Thames Path, which is beautiful to look at with its many small details and where you can take a short break.

Nice place for a picnic on the grass overlooking the valley about half way around the walk after climbing the hill.

Quiet and Friendly local Cafe.

This huge railway bridge crosses the River Thames here. It is locally known as "Four Arches"... because of its four arches. There are two parallel bridges here, in fact, so the bridge is actually two bridges. The original bridge was built between 1838 and 1840 for the main route of the Great Western Railway. The second, parallel, bridge was added in the 1890s. It's a very imposing and impressive structure, particularly if you are just immediately below on the river bank path here.
