Fun double track travelling through some pretty open countryside. It can become muddy when wet. Take care when crossing the ford!

Alford's 5-sailed windmill is the only surviving mill in Alford. At one time there were 3. After renovation, a cafe has recently (July '22) opened in the Sail Shed. Serving Thurs-Sun 9am-5pm, it looks fab!

Fantastic views across the Lincolnshire Wolds AONB await you along the length of Bluestone Heath Road. At 142m, Tetford Hill is the highest point of this section. With wide sweeping views across Lymndale but also east to the coast and west inland. These views continue along the ridgeway which clings to the chalk ridge which gets narrow at some points with the land falling away on both sides. There is a convenient viewing point and lay-by just a kilometre beyond Tetford hill crossroads.
