Standedge is an escarpment that has been a major moorland crossing point since Roman times, possibly even earlier. The area is not highly populated and affords a real sense of solitude. There are some excellent views here, too.

Up here at night you can see Manchester and the surrounding towns lit up brightly in the distance.

Prepare a raincoat or equivalent wind stopper. It almost never stops blowing up here and it can be quite cold, even under the sun!
