Roaches Gates towards The Cloud/Bosley Cloud
Roaches Gate towards The Cloud. The Cloud or Bosley Cloud is a hill on the border between Cheshire and Staffordshire, situated a few miles west of the Peak District National Park boundary.
Info from Wikipedia.
At 343 metres (1,125 ft) in height, it is one of the highest hills in the area. Its heather-covered summit plateau is crowned by a trig point from which extensive views over the towns of Congleton, Biddulph, Macclesfield, Holmes Chapel, and the Greater Manchester area can be enjoyed. The Cloud sits at the northern apex of a triangle formed by the broken ridge which runs along the border between Cheshire and Staffordshire and the hills stretching south through Biddulph Moor into Staffordshire. To its north, the River Dane wraps around its lower slopes whilst the A523 road runs to its east through the village of Bosley in Southeast Cheshire.
BTW....if you zoom in and look to the far left of the image you will see Mow Cop Castle, just visible on the horizon....it's a mere blob but it is there! :)
