A short hill climb up to a beautiful little church with an amazing view of the East Midlands. The climb is short and steep but perfectly doable for anyone. The road is very narrow and a bit twisty but usually very quiet as it leads only to the church.

Lovely views from Breedon on the Hill church and worth the diversion up the one way road for the views. Also impressive sights of the deep quarry dug almost up to the church grounds.
