Stream through the edge of Avening The stream from Cherington Pond grows quickly and by the time it has reached Avening just over a mile away it is this big, with the obvious potential to flood much more in winter, judging by the flood plain and the size of the bridge. The minor road into Avening from the east crosses the stream on this bridge, being used by a tractor.

Leaving Avening A footpath heads south from a newer part of Avening. The houses are built to reflect the lie of the land in this quite hilly village.
