French Weir

Highlight • Bridge

There's been a weir on the River Tone here since the 13th century but, due to flooding, multiple iterations have been destroyed. Today, the weir is rather more stable and makes for an eye-catching feature on the river, next to its eponymous park. You can cross the weir on foot or bicycle.

The Weir Café

Highlight • Cafe

Great food and coffee, friendly staff, outdoor seating, and bike parking. Also food and drink allergy options, a loyalty card, plus they are dog friendly. If I remember correctly, open every day 10 to 4, possibly different at the weekend.

Dog Agility Park, Longrun Meadow

Highlight • Rest Area

I'm sure this dog agility only, as the obstacles will need 100% commitment if you're on a bike!
