Part of the west Pennine Hills Winter Hill stands at 456m. There is a trig point and several radio and communications masts on the summit. There is also a memorial to a plane that crashed here in 1958 on a flight from the Isle of Man to Manchester.
The busy summit (items rather than people) makes a great loop from Rivington of about 10km.
