It's a great view of Alton Castle at dusk as it makes an impressive silhouette on the skyline.

Alton Mill and Village Sign

Highlight • Monument

Looks more like a quirky headstone than a village sign 😆

Sadly this is now privately owned but it is so good to see it has been well preserved.

Alton Bridge Hotel

Highlight • Restaurant

This has lots of outdoor tables under cover in a beautiful location.

Dogs are so welcome that the management leave doggie snack biscuits in a sweetie jar at the bar.

The powder room is exceptional too. The nicest one I've visited in a public house by a long stretch.

The venison and dumplings is definitely recommended highly.
