If you ride along to Ditton Brook and head over the bridge there are a good amount of stairs to reach the top. But we'll worth the views.

Great ride and bridge with cycle path with great views of the river

A striking way to leave Pickering's Pasture and continue upwards via the 'zig zag' path for great views of the estuary and surrounding areas.

Crossing a river flowing into the Mersey - a real adventure.

Beautiful view of the Gateway Bridge

This monument, a beautifully crafted statue of a great man, takes the viewer back to the late 16th and early 17th centuries. It is dedicated to "Childe of Hale" (which is also the name of this highlight), but his real name was John Middleton.

"The earliest known human activity at Oglet is in prehistoric times possibly Mesolithic and Bronze Age, based upon flint artefacts found in the area. Furthermore, a Roman coin (a Denarius of Septimus Severus) and a brooch are amongst other pre-medieval archaeological discoveries. However, its history does not intensify until the late middle ages. Based on the etymology of Oglet, it's believed that the area was oak woodland late into the Anglo-Saxon period. Unlike neighbouring Speke, Oglet is not mentioned in the Domesday Book; it first appears by name in written records of the late 1200s. It is thought to be a case of a shrunken medieval village. An abundance of archaeological finds, particularly pottery, as well as evidence of medieval strip fields in the wider proximity of the hamlet, suggests that it was originally a larger settlement during the later Middle Ages that shrunk during the post-medieval period ending up concentrated on just a single no through road, Oglet Lane. Records from the 14th century through to the 16th century chronicle areas of Oglet being regularly transferred between different local aristocrats of the time, frequently involving the Norris, Molyneux and Ireland families; in 1334, they came together in making Oglet/Speke's eastern boundary official, going by a medieval feature known as the "Ditch of Spek". Many years of agricultural developments have destroyed any evidence of earthworks from those times, however."
