Ingestre is quite a surprise. The village is at the end of a no-through road, so you'll only arrive here by choice or by accident. Your reward is not only a magnificent hall and church, but these amazing stables, which look to me more like an Oxford college. Hmm...

Bridleway in a Field This bridleway runs alongside a tall stone-walled wooded area (Lamberts Coppice) on the right and a very large open field on the left. I guess that at one time there used to be deer kept behind the wall looking at the names on the map.
