Ride info for Sunday 1st March

 The elevenses & lunch are as in the programme but I may need to tweak the tea stop on the day.

Elevenses at Squires Garden Centre, Long Ditton where the bike racks are a little way from the entrance.

On the way to lunch, we'll carry our bikes over the railway at Mitcham Eastfields (this can be avoided).

There is a small stretch of off-road as we near the pub, which is one of Wetherspoon's newest aquisitions.

The route: https://www.plotaroute.com/route/3236130

You can download the gpx from the menu on the right.

I hope you can join me!

Pub history provided by Wetherspoons:

This area of Croydon has retained much of its rural character and many of its older grand houses, one of which was Coombe Lodge. The grade-II-listed building, originally part of the Coombe Estate, is ‘probably mid 18th century’, with a large 19th-century conservatory. The grand house, previously Coombe Gate House or Coombe Green House, is first listed as Coombe Lodge in the 1851 Post Office Directory.
