We’ll then enjoy the descent of Buckland Hill passing over the River Thames at Tadpole Bridge. From this point we’ll turn off the main road
onto the wonderful lanes of Great Brook & Shifford. This will take us through to Aston Pottery where we’ll stop for our elevenses. Once all refreshed we’ll head through to the villages of Bampton & Clanfield, then over the River Thames at Radcot Bridge, this will take us through to the market town of Faringdon. From this point we’ll head for home passing through Fernham, Uffington, Baulking & Goosey. Expect to be back in Grove for around 01:00pm.
