L16 gpx for cycle GPS / phone app, but first READ pdf route & safety info. Route L16

Enjoy a cycling visit to the historic Cholmondley Estate with its gardens, walks, farm shop and tearoom. The route is relatively flat and extends westwards from Audlem via Wrenbury.

• Note: Admission charges apply. Open Spring to Autumn. Check opening times before setting out.
• A 1 mile section of the A525 Whitchurch Road to Coole Lane is involved in the exit and return to Audlem. This is a busy main road requiring caution, especially around the narrow bridge crossing the River Weaver.
• There are short sections of moderate gradient either side of the bridge over the Weaver, but otherwise the route is largely flat.
• The busy main road crossings the A530 at Aston and the A49 at the Cholmondley Arms require care.
