The Hundred Stone

Highlight • Monument

The Hundred Stone’s unassuming appearance belies its historical significance. During Anglo Saxon times, this stone, along with others nearby, marked various ‘hundreds’; local communities with independent courts and law. There is a good chance the stone was erected even before the arrival of the Saxons, though.

St Vincent's Church, Ashington

Highlight • Historical Site

The Church of St. Vincent, a petite structure with origins dating back to 1189-1280, displays charming Hamstone accents and is crowned by a clay tile roof. Its walls are constructed from lias rubble. Remarkably, the church doesn't possess a tower; rather, it boasts an uncommon 'lantern' bellcote, thought to have been appended in the late 15th or early 16th century. In 1878, the church underwent a restoration process.

Rural Cycling Route

Highlight • Cycleway

Great to get off of the main roads but watch out for pot holes and rough road surfaces. This road certainly needs resurfacing/fixing in places.

St. Mary's Church, Merriott

Significant c14th effigies & remains of c14th tiled floor. Tudor carved chancel choir pew ends

Cardinal Thomas Wolsey was rector between 1500 and 1509. He was placed in the stocks by the Sheriff of Somerset for 'drunken and lewd behaviour' at the Merriott fare.

Claire's Tearooms

Highlight • Cafe

Great pit stop for one-three riders, anymore and crowding may become an issue with bikes outside. But great food and drinks at reasonable prices.

Planes Overhead

Highlight • Other

After a low-flying helicopter, I kept staring upwards at all the planes buzzing around. The highlight, for me, was seeing a Hawk come in to land and power down.
