The pass has an average gradient of 13%, with a maximum gradient of 1 in 3 (about 33%)[1] and climbs {{convert|173|m|order=flip}} on its {{convert|1.3|km|order=flip|adj=on}} route.[3] It is colloquially known by cyclists as The Chain Breaker.[4] In 1987 it was used as the venue for the National Hill Climb Championship.[4] It takes its name from a 100 foot high chimney which was built to support an ironstone mine which was in that area. The mine closed in 1929, but remained until it was demolished on 28 July 1972.[2] See also
