Cycle friendly means that the owners welcome single night cyclists, have secure cycle storage and can either offer meals or there are places to eat nearby. Campsites, hostels and bunkhouses are also shown. Use the above map and weblinks to book on-line, cycle friendly Guest Houses, Inns and Hotels on the route or, if you prefer to see them in mile order, use our Accommodation List.

Diversions: Before and during your ride, please check the news page for on-going route diversions and/or signing issues. Red and white roses on signs make the route easy to follow in either direction but you may still need to consult a map where a sign is missing or damaged and where a diversion is in place. You can also print off this free flyer which shows the route in outline. Thanks to Sustrans Volunteer Rangers and Local Authority partners, the route is generally well signed in both directions but this cannot be guaranteed so the official Map and Guide Book can be purchased from Sustrans on-line shop, Tourist Information Centres and Cycle and other shops along the route. Use the interactive map and marker tools to enlarge locations and click on map-pins for more detail.

Like his grandfather, the mad King Charles VI, Henry VI suffered a mental collapse and in the ensuing crisis, the long internecine slaughter of the Wars of the Roses began. Henry V achieved glory at the Battle of Agincourt, only to die young, leaving a child king to succeed him. Richard's incompetence and tyranny precipitated his deposition by the Lancastrians. In 1377 the great warrior king, Edward III, died leaving his kingdom to his young grandson, Richard II. The Wars of the Roses took place during the last phase of the Hundred Years' War.
