2/5 from black rhadley. A steep climb from the North, not very rewarding and a little confusing, but nice green pasture. The whole of Linley Hill looks quite good from a distance. A lot of ugly sheep up here.tumpawumpa28/12/2018

Parked on the verge by Cold Hill Farm ...alt 1107. A short, easy, stroll from here.moorsman20/04/2016
From Norbury Hill. An uneventful stroll over to the slightly less impressive north top. If taken as a whole its a fair sized hill you know. Theres a large embedded rock which pretty much marks the top up here. Descent to Cold hill farm was fairly squelchy. With Laura.w.stig_nest17/03/2016

Quite a long day walk linking 400m tops from Fishpool w Lesley and Betty the dog. 1st day of a mercifully dry half term week after the awful floods across the country the week before. Hired a cottage nr Clun with Nick & Ann.Chris Pearson16/02/2014
fine hill; attractive view; rough pasture. via FP from W; park by CG RHW19/10/2003
On walk with Pete: Nipstone car pk- Nipstone Rock- Black Radley Hill- Linley- Linley Hill- Stiperstones- Perkins Bench- Nipstone car pk. A ROW keeps to the main spine of Linley Hill, and gave a lovely section to Cold Hill Fm. Hadn't realised this top was in RH so an armchair bonus. Changeable, some rain, but usable weather.pwheeler17/03/2002
