It's a wonderful hill that takes you to the highest place in Liverpool, known as the CRANK once you have been up Red Cat Lane 9% you take a left on to Shaley Brow if you carry on past Pimbo Road keep going straight it starts ramping up quick the after you pass the golf course that when you hit 10% and then 14%.
You won't be able to see the top, but once you go around the right-hand bend, it gers easier, and once to see the silver gate, you know you've completed it.

This is the top of Crank Hill at Crank Village - it is not the highest point in Merseyside - that is the top of Billinge Hill which is a short distance away.
Crank Hill is a nice little climb past Fairfield Hospital - the climb is relatively short but is a consistent ramp which will definitely give your lungs a bit of a workout.
