Dutton Doddle

This is a gentle ride that takes a lovely scenic route from Acton Swing Bridge, under the A49 to Blue Bell Nursery and back. It's just a short 5 miles total for those wanting to get back on their bikes or explore this scenic route. The ride follows the River Weaver for 1 mile to Dutton Locks, then on round through Dutton Park Woodlands and grass land for another 1.5 miles to Blue Bell Nursery. We can stop at the nursery for a browse or home made lemonade before making our way back. Best suited to a mountain or hybrid bike as a very short part of the route is a gravelly path (with some pot holes). The route is virtually traffic free, though the first part to Dutton Locks has the occassional car accessing the lock cottages. Parking available on quiet lanes beside pub. Parking available in pub for customers as well.
