When you reach the top of the climb you are rewarded with a fine view of the Cotswold Hills to the south.

steep climb out of Alderton, around the edge of fields, then up steep and rocky Byway great spot to stop and take a breath at the top. I completed on a gravel bike, but MTB would be easier

The climb up is unrelenting, but not too steep. Gives great views north to the Vale and beyond.

Elmley Castle is often referred to as the prettiest village in Worcestershire, even England, and for good reason. Its beautiful half-timbered cottages and tree-lined streets make it a Cotswold favourite. Discover a historic church, lovely old pub, The Queen Elizabeth Inn, and plenty of nature walks nearby.

The PARK at Elmley, which belonged to the lords of Elmley Castle, was possibly made about 1234, for in that year Walter de Beauchamp received from the king a gift of ten does and three bucks for stocking his park at Elmley. In 1298 the wood in the park was worth 4s. yearly. Thomas de Beauchamp Earl of Warwick complained in 1349 that several persons, including Robert de Amyas, parson of the church of Great Comberton, had hunted in his free chase at Elmley Castle and carried away deer. The park was enlarged about 1480 by the addition of part of the demesne land of the manor called Court Close. In 1478 William Adams was appointed keeper of the park and warren at Elmley Castle. In 1480 John Mortimer was appointed master of the game in Elmley Park, and in 1484 John Hudelston succeeded to this office, but it was granted in the following year to Richard Naufan, and in 1488 to Sir John Savage. Henry VIII appointed Sir John Savage and his son John Savage keepers of the park and warren in 1512. Walter Walshe was appointed keeper in 1528. He died in 1538, and Thomas Evans and Rowland Morton both wrote to Cromwell asking for his aid in obtaining the position, the latter saying, 'if it please the King by your Lordship's mediation to prefer me, I and mine shall stand balanced in also et basso, live and die in your Lordship's retinue.' He also begs credence for his messenger 'and will give your Lordship £20.' Neither of these suppliants received the post, which was granted to Urian Brereton. The park was included in the sale to Christopher Savage, and remained in his family until 1822, when it was sold with the castle to Colonel Thomas Henry Hastings Davies. It now belongs to Lieut.-General Henry Fanshawe Davies, J.P., D.L.
