This old watermill has been converted into a theatre . It is situated in the south western section of the grid square off the lane indicated on the map, north of the pub.

Dist:0.2km<br/>From a distance these looked like two real animals. But as we approached it quickly became clear that this was a sculpture of stag and doe. Why here? And why the seat? This is in the middle of a private paddock.

Dist:0.2km<br/>The village is in the valley of the Winterbounre Stream. The wide footpath runs between two fences towards it. It had been raining so was very wet underfoot and still a bit misty in the air.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Showing the Newbury Bypass as it crosses the Lambourn valley. The nearer bridge carries a public footpath just east of Bagnor. The more distant one is at the A4 junction at Speen.

Dist:0.2km<br/>These fence posts were neatly stacked in the corner of the field in which they will probably be used. The colour seemed unnaturally orange, perhaps they had been treated.

Dist:0.3km<br/>This is a new stretch of bridleway running parallel to the A34, Newbury Bypass. The bridleway was diverted west of its original course to use a new bridge over the dual carriageway. The high fence removes any danger of anyone wandering onto the road. The course of the old route can be seen on the 1:25000 map making a bee-line for the castle.

Dist:0.3km<br/>A view over the western part of the golf course from the bridleway beside the A34. The southern end of Ashpiece Copse is to the right. The course is part of Donnington Grove Country Club and was established in the early 1990s. The A34 runs through it. It is one of two golf courses in Donnington.

Dist:0.3km<br/>This narrow footbridge takes the public footpath from Rack Marsh.

Dist:0.4km<br/>Watermeadows where the River Lambourn and Winterbourne Stream have their confluence. The marsh is a Wildlife Trust nature reserve. It is crossed by a byway which is, in reality, just a very swampy footpath with footbridges over the watercourses.

Dist:0.4km<br/>Grazing at Castle Farm. The castle and everything other than the immediate foreground are in SU4669.

Dist:0.4km<br/>The barn stands beside the bridleway between the A34 and Donnington Castle which can be seen in the background.

Dist:0.5km<br/>There was a lot of work going on here, banging and drilling. It seems that this barn is being converted into a house, a classic barn conversion. It will be interesting to see what it looks like when finished, and how it has changed.

Dist:0.5km<br/>This is part of the A34 Newbury bypass, one of the sections that had large numbers of protests including tree-dwellers when being built in the 1990s.
