This is a tough little climb up the Kentish North Downs. Covered by trees you keep climbing almost the entire way until you reach ‘The Nower’. Punishing but lots of fun

Grit your teeth.
As seen in Hill Climb Championship (1931) [find it on YouTube] where men in thick wool jumpers grind up it in less than 120 seconds!
Good luck

I know that hill very well! All the hills leading off Pilgrims Lane to the top of the North Downs are very tough!
