River Bourne and Old Mill Ruins

Highlight • River

Here you enter a path that runs through woods and next to the River Bourne. You can easily get down to the waters edge. There is also a ruined building here which I believe may be an old mill due to its close proximity to the river.

The Plough, Ivy Hatch

Highlight • Pub

This is an excellent little spot, perfect for cyclists and walkers with bike parking and plenty of tables outside at the front and rear. They have a simple but excellent menu with fantastic coffee. It's a must stop for cyclists!
