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.

Ford and Bridge at Shalford Green

Highlight • Bridge

You can choose the ford if you’re on gravel tyres, the bridge if you’re on road tyres.

Lyons Hall Wood

Highlight • Forest

Lovely bit of shaded woodland road. In spring the woods are carpeted in bluebells.

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.
