Grade C. This is a 40 mile tour around Cheshire stopping at eight remarkable parish churches in different villages ranging from Bunbury in the east to Farndon in the south. There are a few hills around Beeston castle, but much of the route is flat on quiet country lanes.
David Brewer is the ride leader. Meeting start and end point is Chester railway station. 10:00 start time.
From Chester station we head out on the canal tow path to Christleton (St James); then all on country lanes to:- Waverton (St Peters); Hargrave (St Peters); past Beeston Castle; Bunbury (St Boniface) – also a lunch stop there at the Nag’s Head pub. Then an elephant, before going on to Tattenhall (St Alban’s); Farndon (St Chad); Aldford (St John’s); and Bruera (St Mary the Virgin). We can visit inside some of the interesting churches- so it may be quite a long day with lots of stops.
