Here's a 3D image of the two roads and some shots from the 1971 Golden Jubilee film.
Would the short test hill have run up the bank that's now a tall concrete wall (Point A) - or the slope behind it (Point B)? Click the picture to get a clearer view.
Could this be it? Taking the steepest path shown in the last picture, the height gain to the first marker (30 metres) and second (40 metres) is 14 metres, with a slope of 1 to 2.85. After that, to the last (80 metres) marker, the land only rises a further 1 metre. That's a very short but steep rise but, could it be the other longer slope at B, or somewhere else?
Is this the test hill? 1972 Golden Jubilee film at 07.35 Scroll down to find at https://archive.a7ca.org/collections/films/
What's the real answer?
The pictures are not shown in the correct sequence. Despite putting them in the right order several times, the computer keeps saying, "No."
