The Iron Duke Pub

Highlight • Pub

***Update October 2025 - After about 18 months of closure it's back! Only open on Sundays and Wednesdays at the moment (also Bank Holidays), but it's back nonetheless.***

Friendly country pub.

Has a drinking water tap in the garden and barman was keen to let me know that they're happy for this to be used out of hours. Probably best not to take the p!ss, but good to know.

St Mary the Virgin Church, Beech Hill

Highlight • Historical Site

Idyllic church on the corner of Beech Hill Road and Grazeley Road on National Cycle Network Route 23 (sustrans.org.uk/find-a-route-on-the-national-cycle-network/route-23/) - thanks to the imposing trees at the corner of the road this is a perfect spot for a bit of rest in the shade on warm Summer days.

Climb to Farley Hill

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

This is a nice little climb through the woods which averages around 5-6% gradient and is relatively traffic-free.
Autumn colours and the early afternoon silence made this one of the notable highlights of my tour.
