Good views from the higher ground with a fast drop down on a generally empty road.

Lovely setting, in a converted farm building by a small lake next to a caravan/motorhome campsite. 50m off the main road down a smooth and level gravel driveway. Indoor seating or outdoor picnic tables by the lake. Open 9.30am-4pm, Tue-Sat.

Pleasant, shady spot. Only a few meters from the road but the ground is grass/mud so not the easiest to access in road cleats unless in dry summer conditions.

The approach from the A1066 to the south offers a short but fast descent (max 7%) to the River Thet, a rarity in this part of the world. Watch out for the off-camber 90 degree left turn at the bottom, with a large pot hole in the middle, which can easily catch you out.

This is the older of the two mills in the village of Pakenham, the watermill. Not just in Pakenham, but we're talking about the oldest operational watermill in Suffolk. Currently, it offers guided tours, and you can even purchase the flours they produce on-site. More information at: https://pakenhamwatermill.org.uk/

Nothing but the admittedly impressive earthworks left now. Best viewed from the east side on Castle Lane.

Quintessential Suffolk: wide, rolling views, and pig farms. An avenue of trees has just been planted along the road so come back in a couple of decades to see the change.

Foodie pub with a large beer garden (tucked off through an arched gate to the right). Good bet for a lunch or refreshment stop.

Quiet route through the trees.

Love a free house. Large beer garden at rear.

Pretty rough and ready but one of the few convenience stores in the area. Closes between 2 and 3pm each day and at 1pm on Sundays.

No shop front signage so keep a look out or it’s easy to miss it.

Quite a grand church with elaborate stonework. There’s a cafe just to the north (Thu-Sat only) and a general store just to the south.

Only open Thursdays to Saturdays and closes at 2.30 but a nice little place if you catch it.

Thetford Castle is a medieval motte and bailey castle, largely destroyed in 1173 by Henry II, although the huge motte, the second largest man-made mound in England, remains intact.

Stop & pay tribute to this memorial, hidden away on country roads with little traffic to disturb you.

Roadside commemoration for the US bomber crews who flew from the former RAF Knettishall.

Village store. Open 0700 to 2000 Mon-Sat 0700 to 1700 Sun

Lovely picturesque village centre with a co-op, a tea room (10-4.30, closed Sun & Mon) and a fish & chip shop (lunchtimes and after 5pm, closed Sun).
