The Filling Station Café

Highlight • Structure

An excellent little cycle café and bike shop, often with cycling on screen, serving good coffee, cakes and bacon sandwiches.
The building is an old garage and its listed. There are still several historical petrol pumps outside on the forecourt.

Beckford Bridge

Highlight • Historical Site

A wonderful packhorse bridge, Beckford Bridge spans the River Yarty in the Blackdown Hills AONB to the north west of Axminster. Made from local rubble stone, this Grade II-listed span is in remarkably good condition, thanks to a modern bridge taking traffic. You can walk over the old bridge although it's best admired from the new one.

Colyton Town Center

Highlight • Settlement

105 Colyton men (more than any other Devon town) chose to follow the Protestant Duke of Monmouth in his rebellion against the Catholic King James II. Many were killed, hanged or sent into slavery. A little more peaceful now. The bike shop here is not at all rebellious.
