Scenic Country Lane

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Frequent piles of loose gravel and chippings heaped in the middle of the road so you generally need to stick to one tyre track - be careful if you need to move across.

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.

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 Mill

Stunning example of a refurbished Essex mill, complete with pond and willow tree! Ride by and wonder who lives there now!
