The photograph on this page of Climbing Muswell Hill by Martin Addison as part of the Geograph project.
The Geograph project started in 2005 with the aim of publishing, organising and preserving representative images for every square kilometre of Great Britain, Ireland and the Isle of Man.
There are currently over 7.5m images from over 14,400 individuals and you can help contribute to the project by visiting https://www.geograph.org.uk

A W7 climbs the lower section of the hill past the closed off Cranmore Way. The vehicle is a Volvo B7TL with Transbus President body. Its 250hp Volvo diesel will be bellowing as the vehicle grinds its way up the hill. The bus stops on the hill have been placed on shallower sections of the climb to make pulling away after collecting passengers a bit easier. The W7 route also traverses Crouch Hill, so the buses employed on this route take a bit of a hammering. In the distance is the junction with Priory Road and Park Road.
