Stop off to admire the historic castle, which was originally a Motte and Bailey. It has been added to since. Also see the statue of Ethelfleda, the queen of Mercia, the bandstand, flower beds and the tribute to the Watchmen of the Staffordshire Regiment in the castle grounds... There is parking here to start the course if you prefer. Lots of nice cafes and places to eat. Recommend the castle grounds cafe, Christopher's at the Peel, no 18 coffee House and the Book Nook and Bakery.

Such a towpath (known in German as a towpath or Leinpfad), which runs alongside the river or canal, was an essential part of the transport infrastructure in earlier times. Before ships could move by motor power, horses walked along the bank, pulling the boat against the current. This activity was called "treideln" in German, and thus the "treidelpfad" got its name. Where these paths – running directly along the bank – have survived to this day, they no longer serve their original purpose, but are still popular: namely, with hikers and cyclists.

Towpath is usually in pretty good condition for most of the year. Probably not all suitable for a road bike but anything with 40mm or above tyres is going to be fine.

The bridge over the River Anker, just off the Castle Grounds, offers a fine view of the river and parkland beyond.

The building was built in 1701 to a design by William Gilkes and financed by Thomay Guy. The arcades on the ground floor were intended for holding markets and the first floor is supported by 18 Doric columns. A sign was placed at the front reading “This hall was built at the expense of Thos. Guy Esq. “Anno MDCCI built” (1701).
