Mow Cop Castle is famous amongst walkers/runners/cyclists for it's breathtaking view, Killer Mile and Cheshire Cat. You have to see it for yourself, but for now, this video will havde to do.
Mow Cop Castle is a folley, built as a summerhouse in 1754 for Randle Wilbraham I of Rode Hall. The killer Mile is race without a level step, climbing 550ft in the process, held most recently on Thursday 28th April 2011.
This breathtaking view was recorded by one of our fosterers while out walking Buster, a staffy cross in need of a home. You can find out more about Buster here: http://www.rspca-macclesfield.org.uk/busterpage.html
