Great views across Dedham Vale

Beautiful village on the Stour, the ‘capital’ of the Dedham Vale, with an imposing high street including cafes for a refreshment stop. The descent down through the wide main street from the south-west offers a nice fast run as well!

The bench by the Stour really is a nice spot if you need a stop. There's a tarmac path leading to it if you don't fancy off-roading across the grass.

It's an ok enough stretch of road although not particularly special. There are many more scenic routes than this fairly anonymous stretch of tarmac.

Dedham Vale is an AONB that covers about 90 sq km crossing the Essex-Suffolk border. The River Stour winds its way through the valley, passing green rolling farmland. John Constable often featured the valley in his paintings, to the extent that the area is known as Constable Country. Some of his Dedham Vale paintings are on display at the V&A Museum in London.

The nice café operator has a heart for starving bikers and is happy to fulfill special requests

Wormingford is a pretty and historic village in the Dedham Vale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Its St Andrew's Church is Grade I-listed and has been serving the parish since the 12th century, while there have been many Neolithic discoveries made in the surrounding countryside. You can refuel at the Crown pub and restaurant.

Not only a great name for a road, but a testing little climb. Peaks at around 9% so a good test of the legs without being too tough.
