4 unusual facts about Roseberry Topping


Roseberry Topping

Gordon Giltrap released an instrumental track named 'Roseberry Topping' on his 2010 album Shining Morn.

Its summit has a distinctive half-cone shape with a jagged cliff, which has led to many comparisons with the much higher Matterhorn in Switzerland.

Chris Rea dedicated the song Chisel Hill from the album Shamrock Diaries to Roseberry Topping.

The summit has magnificent views across the Cleveland plain as far as the Pennines on a clear day, some 40 to 50 miles (60 to 80 km) away.
