처칠 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

훌륭한 커피! 멋진 정원과 전망이 있어 햇살이 비칠 때 완벽합니다. 메뉴에 좋은 음식 옵션이 있으며, 맛있는 베이컨 롤을 추천합니다 🤣

진흙탕이 될 수 있습니다! 차를 세워두기 좋은 장소가 아닙니다.

Good breakfast

"William 'Strata' Smith was born in Churchill, Oxfordshire on 23 March 1769. He died in Northamptonshire on 28 August 1839.  Smith was an English geologist, credited with creating the first detailed, nationwide geological map of any country. At the time his map was first published he was overlooked by the scientific community; his relatively humble education and family connections prevented him from mixing easily in learned society. Financially ruined, Smith spent time in debtors' prison. It was only late in his life that Smith received recognition for his accomplishments, and became known as the "Father of English Geology" Source: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Smith_(geologist) Further info can be found here; https://www.churchillheritage.org.uk/famous-sons/william-smith

A rather nice pub that is also a live music venue. The band tonight opened with 'Three Little Birds' by Bob Marley. An upbeat way to finish my walk. 'Don't worry...About a thing'😊

"The Church of England parish church of St Andrew has a 14th-century perpendicular gothic west tower with a 15th-century top. The chancel was rebuilt in 1688. In 1852–53 the church was heavily restored and the south aisle was added. The tower has a ring of eight bells, all cast in 1924 by John Taylor of Loughborough. The church is a Grade II listed building. Both The Rectory and the Old Rectory Cottage are 17th century."

The Village Green at Bledington is a lovely place to stop and rest. If picnic benches, wildflowers, ducks, bantams and a brook running through it aren't enough there is always the 16th century public house, The Kings Head.
