The Swan Great Shefford (3.4m)

No-usable-website About ten miles from Newbury on the Lambourn valley road.
A large and usually busy village pub, that serves good food and beer.

Leave the Swan and go over the river towards Wantage. Look out for a FP sign on the L, and take the FP that runs behind the houses parallel to the Wantage road for nearly a mile, until it reaches a farm track. Turn L on this, and follow the FP that bears slightly L towards the lowest point of the skyline. This crosses one track, and after a mile meets a second. Turn L downhill, go through Maidencourt Farm, and just before meeting the River Lambourn, take the Lambourn Valley Way, that brings you back to Great Shefford and the pub.
