Visited with Leaf1471 and Jon

This wasn't even on the list to be done, but after a manhole lead went to nowhere anything was on the cards. Leaf had done this one a couple of nights before, and I fancied a go at it. After a gap in the wet weather came, we were straight up it.

The view from the top of the priory is nice, with views over Liverpool and the dockyard. You do stick out like a sore thumb up here though...
