Red Telephone Box and Post Box

Highlight • Historical Site

Original telephone booth with a royal mailbox next to it. You can only find something like this here.

On my further tour, I saw many such telephone booths, which now serve as defibrillator stations. A practical idea.

Burnt Dick Hill

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Not only a great name for a road, but a testing little climb. Peaks at around 9% so a good test of the legs without being too tough.
