Worth a visit just for the views but a bit difficult to access. Best access is from Leechmere Road. The track begins just before the houses and is signed for the Tunstall Hills park. One tip, once you've been there return the way you came. I tried to find a way down following some unmarked tracks and ended up having to cross a farmers field which is not ideal.
