Stoodley Pike

Monument

👍👍 Amazing views if you visit on a clear day. There’s a bit of a climb up here so make sure you’re fit. It’s an imposing monument right on the top of the hill and you can go inside it where there’s a spiral staircase to the viewing level. There’s no lighting inside on the staircase so bring a torch or...

William Tyndale Monument

Monument

👍👍 Great place with amazing views. Quite a steep 15-20 mins approach. No dedicated parking available but plenty of spaces in the area. The tower is open 24/7 and there are around 120 very narrow steps up. Staircase may get sleepery when wet or muddy but the tower seems safe at the top for kids any age.

Welcombe Hills Obelisk

Monument

👍👍 Perfect place for a walk or dog walk, beautiful views and the obelisk is huge, I will be walking the hills more often, car park at both sides which are free but one has a certain amount of time to stay but keep in mind it is a good walk ranging from 20-30 minutes to the obelisk.
