In the process, I visited a couple of the churches ranked among England's finest by Simon Jenkins. There is no shortage of those around here. One of the ones I visited was rebuilt by rich wool merchants in the 15th century (this one), and the other (St Mary, Polstead) predates that by a few hundred years. They are both beautiful, within sight of each other, but very different.
As I had already discovered, the back lanes around here are fairly hilly, and it was quite a strenuous 13 miles. But thoroughly enjoyable, nonetheless, and refreshingly different to my normal stomping ground.
I logged the journey on the GPS, with the intent of adding it to Openstreetmap. But most of my traces had already been covered. I am not confident about some of the rest, so in the end, today's ride turned out to be a bit selfish. Great fun for me, but not a lot to contribute to anyone else.
