Bell Lane is steep, narrow, and has a bad surface. It's slightly indirect, so you have a couple of turnings to make on the way up. If you get a car coming the other way it may be difficult to pass safely. This all said, it's quite a nice climb, and it doesn't feel too urban, but not one you'd bother with unless you're bored with the others, or trying to improve your Climbfinder rating for the area!... read more
