Straight Rural Lane Through Wheat Fields

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

A lovely stretch of lane with a slight s-bend in the middle. Usually very few cars so you can just enjoy the open road.

Rumblebees Café

Highlight • Cafe

Pleasant little cafe but only limited space, indoors and out, and no space for bike parking so best for only a couple of riders - larger groups, go elsewhere. Cakes and drinks only.

Felsted Water Tower

Highlight • Structure

Amazing 1960s concrete Brutalist water tower that looks like some kind of alien spacecraft crash landed in the Essex countryside on the edge of Felsted.
