The Bandit's first stop this time around is Lighthorne, not too far from Gaydon.
The old well at Lighthorne makes for a charming feature...
... as indeed does the Antelope pub, an antelope having been the infantry mascot of the Royal Warwickshire Regiment.
A nice pint of Butcombe Rare Breed slakes one's thirst in the Antelope.
St Laurence's is the parish church for Lighthorne and environs.
The Bandit's second stop is the nearby settlement of Moreton Morrell, which sounds rather posh.
Moreton Morrell's pub contribution is the Black Horse...
... a sedate setting for a drop of Hook Norton's Old Hooky (in appropriate glassware).
Onwards then to Ashorne for the Cottage Tavern with its twin Ansells Ales lamps.
A glowing burner and a Scrumdown Golden Ale (as befits Six Nations rugby season) in the Cottage Tavern.
And finally, the Church of St George the Martyr in Newbold Pacey.
