St. Lawrence's Church, Steppingley

Highlight • Religious Site

I used the Greensands Cycleway/Bridleway to come up to the church to avoid the road route, pretty church and lots of daffodils during the Spring

Ampthill Market Square

Highlight • Cafe

Ampthill is a picturesque, Georgian, small market town - a great place to stop if you're passing through. The town has various cafes and pubs all with lovely food and drink. The market square is very pretty, there's bike racks and a place to sit and watch the world go by. The Deli next to the square has All-Press coffee if you are a real coffee lover.

St Mary the Virgin Church, Haynes

Highlight • Historical Site

St Mary the Virgin is a peaceful church just outside of Haynes village. Most of the church you see today was rebuilt in the 1850s, aside from the west tower which dates from the late 14th century. A wonderful place to escape the heat of summer or wander the gravestones. From the churchyard, you get a wonderful view over to Haynes park.
