This shows how steep Tinker Lane really is. I was a bit a weakling until I got a bike. I road up down here times many until I could pedal from bottom to top while still sitting on the saddle. It was a damn good place to sledge down, but a bit of a climb back up. Also shows three entrances onto the Bolehills; here, just up the road by the cottages and centre distance, via the steps.
