Pendle HillNewest Review: ... opposite the village hall. Our journey took us past the two reservoirs near to Pendle Hill which meant we ascended via the less popular and thus less busy route, which is longer but the gradient is spread over a greater distance.

Pendle Hill (1827 ft / 557 m) [Background: Although not strictly an attraction in Clitheroe itself, Pendle Hill is located in the town's immediate vicinity (about three miles to the East).

Quaint settlements, all with their unique character, such as Whalley, Sabden, Newchurch, Barley, Downham, Trawden, Padiham, Fence, Higham, Barrowford, Gisburn and Chatburn have all developed in the shadow of this ...
