The Swan Great Shefford (3.4m)
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.

About ten miles from Newbury on the Lambourn valley road.
A large and usually busy village pub, that serves good food and beer.
