    Excuse my ignorance but how did the clue give the answer away - I'm useless at cryptic clues and this game in general!

    Peter Schmeichel is a goalkeeper (keeper). Keeper Hill is a popular hill walking area and one of the start points for Keeper is just outside of the village of Toor.

    Thanks for explaining that.

    I think what threw me is that the poster who got it right said he'd never heard of the place but got it from your clue!

    In fairness you've gotten all the ones I've ever put up so about time I got one! Being very local to the area helped and that it was a shortcut back in the day to avoid traffic coming in from the rower side I've been on it a lot!

    I won't be able to post one until Wednesday so someone else can take my go if they want.

    I'm just glad to finally get one!
