Blakeley Raise

A very chilly Sunday morning in February would normally find me happily tucked under the duvet but it was so crisp and clear (OK, make that freezing) that there was no one else around, no traffic for miles before or after – just a glorious spot. Checking TMA book version when I got home, the “3 miles from the junction” is actually only 1½ – but it’s not like you can miss it driving past!
