Renton 17759 Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Whatever happens, I live at the top of a hill so I'm fine for the next century. 96182[/snapback] how high? Are there any hills in Reading - always looks bloody flat to me?? 96205[/snapback] 750ft above sea level where I am. There's a big dip on the way down to Juntion 11 from my house. 96211[/snapback] Are you sure about that? Seems very high to me - higher than most the area the Pennines is in, for instance.

adios 717 Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 We're 300 metres up, which isn't that high, foothills of the Pyrenees probably hillier than Reading, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
