Lemons Hill Bridge carries the road across the northern end of Alton water reservoir. It links the two parts of Tattingstone village.

The best view of the upper part of Alton Water. A wide, fast descent to the bridge from either direction with a short climb out.

Nice little town with a scenic location at the top of the Stour estuary and a pretty, historic high street with several cafes as well as a Tesco convenience store.

The lowest crossing on the River Stour, next to the tidal sluices separating the river from the estuary, and also the border between Essex and Suffolk. Originally the site of a timber bridge which was bleached white by the salt.

The park includes a cafe with bike stands and outdoor seating overlooking the river, open 9-4 every day.

Nice flat, peaceful riverside route between Manningtree and Mistley Towers (the only remaining parts of a demolished church).

Scenic brick bridge and a riverside rest area.

Unfussy traditional cafe. Open 8am-6pm Mon-Sat, 9am-4pm Sun.

Actually probably one of the ugliest villages in a famously picturesque area: dominated by an estate of very un-scenic modern houses. About the best thing you could say is it's better than the A12.

It looks like you’re riding through a period village but it’s actually all part of the grounds and buildings of a boarding school connected with the Royal Navy. Impressive Queen Anne-style architecture.

Sorry - should read best bike shop !!!

Agree - the hedt bike shop in East Anglia - worth a detour - even a long one!!!

Lemons Hill Bridge crosses Alton Water and links the two parts of Tattingstone which were split when the reservoir was created. A great number of buildings were lost. In the north is the village pub, the White Horse, a lovely place to stop, while in the south is an 18th century workhouse and the parish church. If you are running through the village keep an eye out for the red phone box which is home to a collection of audio recordings of people who were impacted by the flooding of the area to make way for Alton Water.

If you fancy taking to the water, Constable Park offers a variety of activities including SUP, kayak and Canadian canoe all available to hire, and you don't have to pre-book. There is also a coffee house on-site.

Great sandwich at Huffers. Cash only though…

Across the River Brett and into Hadleigh - lots of places for lunch!

Formerly the premises of The Pedal House bike shop. Great pastries, filled sandwiches and rolls, cakes and coffee, and outdoor or indoor seating.

Now moved over the road to warehouse premises, with access by appointment only. The former shop is an independent cafe and deli so the next best thing to a bike shop for a roadie!

Beautiful village with a scenic market square, just south of which is Lifecycle UK, an independent specialist offering Colnago and other leading bike brands, custom builds, bike fits etc.

The largest manmade reservoir in Suffolk, Alton Water is a tranquil place to whittle away some time on a bike Tour. It took over 13 years to construct the reservoir, opening in 1987. The waters' surface area measures a whopping 400 acres (160 ha) – plenty big enough to enjoy various watersports!
