Interestingly, although Malmesbury and Tetbury are only 8 km apart, and both have disused railways, they were never connected by rail!

King's Heath Path

Highlight • Trail

I stopped here for a break and a local gentleman told me the history of King's Heath. It was given to the people of Malmesbury by King Athelstan over a millennium ago in recognition of their efforts against Viking invaders.

Malmesbury Common Gravel Road

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

You can enjoy three crossings of the Common and make an out and back and out again route zig zagging across the old roads. Just be careful to watch the wind direction. Headwinds can be brutal.
