What's wrong with Stanhope apart from the climb up Crawleyside?

You'll have a great time, I did it last year. My grandma used to live half way up Crawleyside bank. On the bend, the steepest bit. We used to go every weekend and spent a lot of time in the toy shop in the village (I think it's a cafe now) and playing down by the ford. Happy days.
