Ale Water flows here into Alemoor Reservoir, and B711 here is a causeway that divides the reservoir into two parts. Very beautiful views straight from the road. Spot Alemoor Hill on the wooded slopes, north-west of the road.

Berry Knowe Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

I’ve always known it as the Berry Bush climb, a very quiet road with some glorious view, steady gradient from the Yarrow side coming in the other direction it dose kick up towards the top, grin inducing decent either way.
