Hale Green and the Farmer's Market

Start at 09.30 outside Next on the Southampton Road. We cycle along Route 24 half way up the hill to Alderbury then take the Shute Road fork and make our way through the rolling countryside to Downton. When we meet the main road, we will turn left and then right, up Slab Lane and continue along there until we reach a T junction. We turn right on the Ridge and then take a right along Hale Road where we will be rewarded with tea and cakes at the bustling Farmer's Market. Once recovered and once bought all the produce that will fit in the saddle bag, we can either make our way back to Downton by a different route (Moot Lane) or, extend the ride and make our way back to Salisbury via Rockbourne - we can decide on the day.
