The Old Windmill in Stanbridge is a striking, unmissable landmark for cyclists and walkers. This Grade II listed, early 19th-century red brick tower mill has had its cap, sails, and gear removed as it's been converted into a private home. It offers a great photo opportunity, but please view this unique, historic residence respectfully from the road or public footpaths only.

Can recommend the Tiddenfoot Waterside Carpark on Mentmore Road as an excellent place to start a bicycle ride or a walk. It's just on the outskirts of Leighton Buzzard and is free.

Great cafe, after a good climb

It's also a very short distance, across a main road, to Dunstable Downs and a coffee with a view at the Visitor Centre.

As you turn off Dagnall Road, get into a low gear and take it easy. You don't want to be going into the red before the twisty steep bit, as it feels really narrow and if you put your foot down it might be hard to get going again.

Five bells pub lovely spot for some well earned refreshments

This stretch of road is called Park Gate. From the top of Park Gate you have extensive southerly views to Mentmore ridge, Mentmore Towers (1850s) and beyond to the Chiltern escarpment are spectacular. Park Gate is set within former parkland of Wing Park which also housed extensive gardens of a lost mid-16th century manor house.
