A really welcoming local rugby club. Stop and have a drink and watch some rugby most Saturdays (seniors) and Sundays (juniors). Food is usually available on match days. Loos are OK but its a ruby club so can be a bit muddy in Gents.

Henham Village and The Cock Inn

Highlight • Settlement

Nice pub with seats in front and large garden to side. Well worth a rest after the hill up to it.

Deceivingly Tough Uphill Road

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Best traversed westbound for the downhill. Eastbound it's one of those gradual climbs that never relents, made even more difficult by the wind howling across the fields.

Downhill Coast to North Hall Road

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Coast downhill eastbound to North Hall Road. Can be a gut-buster westbound against the wind.

Dorringtons Bakery

Highlight • Cafe

Dorringtons is a bakery in Newport Essex with space for bikes and seats inside and bench outside. Good coffee, pots of tea and bacon baguettes. There is a wide range of cakes as well of course. Staff always helpful and quick service especially if eating inside. Can be quite busy as its popular locally but queues move quickly so don't let that put you off. Toilet available sometimes locked but ask staff and they will unlock.
