From car pk on Cunnery Rd. Wasn't sure about accessing via Old Rectory open space so carefully followed RoWs shown on map, then trodden path to summit. Cairn was just big enough for Pete and I to shelter behind and eat packed breakfast. Nice hill, fine views of surrounding hills and valleys.pwheeler26/09/2020
