Stoodley Pike, or "the Pike", upon which the Stoodley Pike monument stands, is a 402m hill on the Pennine Way in West Yorkshire. The monument itself is 37m tall, with a 39-step spiral staircase climbing 12m to allow visitors to access a balcony running round around its outer edge. The Pike can be seen across the moors from many locations vantage points around the Upper Calder Valley. It was designed in 1854 by local architect John Green and completed at the end of the Crimean War in 1856. Prior to the current stone structure, an earlier monument was built on a spot closer to the edge of the hill. This was commenced in 1814 to commemorate the defeat of Napoleon, but collapsed after being struck by lightning.
