Short but stiff pull up 30m of gradient on a wide road with decent surface. The descent is fun, ending with a long curving run-out to a T junction.

Best view of Kimbolton Castle - actually a stately home rather than a castle and now part of Kimbolton School.

Is it a small town or a big village? Dominated now by the extensive grounds of the independent Kimbolton School.
