Flooded Track

Highlight • Natural

If you peddle through you might find it deep enough to cover your feet if it has been quite wet previously (as it was on 5/10/24).

The route does a dog-leg about here, which takes you to the other side of the hedge. The official bridleway route. I keep missing it - although you end up at the right place in the end as you travel parallel to it and rejoin through a gap in the hedge at the end of the field.

Obelisk Monument

Highlight • Monument

Strange edifice - looks fairly recent construction. No plaque or information about the structure that we could see. There was a picknick bench nearby with another large circular table made from a big cable drum cut in half - very strange.

Skylark Cottage Ruins

Highlight • Historical Site

An interesting bijou residence in need of TLC - for sale at the time of my visit. Its situated next to a disused railway so, presumably, it was once a Railwaymans Cottage.

Disused Railway Cutting and Brick Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Quite an impressive cutting with a substantial brick bridge. Its quite difficult to see from the path but impressive nonetheless.

The River Great Ouse at Turvey

Highlight • River

Notable for its limestone brick work, Turvey is a charming little Bedfordshire village on the River Great Ouse. Of its six historic public houses, two remain: the Three Fyshes and the Three Cranes. The latter also boasts B&B rooms.

Two buildings of note in the village are Turvey House and Turvey Abbey. Its parish church has Saxon origins but the building today is almost certainly post-Norman.
