10136	13/09/2015	SH 60453 44190	F: Ground in woodland at back of stone bench. O: This is the 'summit bench' at SH 60453 44190 which doesn't coincide with the 1:10,000 map 52m spot height (SH 60494 44177) which is 50m further ESE. Certainly seemed like the summit but maybe isn't - next visitor please check!	RHW	Summit		CC
10241	20/09/2015	SH 60500 44189	F: Holly tree on knoll O: This is the E summit corresponding to expected location on OS map. Seems lower than W summit (with bench) although the two not properly intervisible.	RHW	Subpoint	1	CC
10242	20/09/2015	SH 60455 44191	F: Ground rear of bench O: Having located the E summit, this W summit seems higher, although the two not properly intervisible: needs proper survey	RHW	Summit		CC

Footpath from lane to summit.	jrj	16/09/2023
Used the footpath to the top, took about 8 minutes. Very muddy but lovely woods.	Skarletk	18/05/2022

Revisited in passing to check summit location. 2 distinct summits. Mapped location 50m East of stone bench (52m spot ht is at SH 60493 44177) appears lower by 1-2m although would need survey to determine. OS contouring just shows E summit, presumably fooled by tree cover. With Ryan Smith en route to climbing at Tremadoc. Same parking spot as before. Path goes all the way to summit with final approach round N side; in descent we followed path SSW through wood visiting another bench, then walked back along road.	RHW	20/09/2015
From SSW, parked by barn, up road, small path E to summit. Descended N along path which joins road a few m N of cottages, but no parking available on road thereabouts. After Fer-las. Subsequently noted that the 'summit bench' at SH 60453 44190 doesn't coincide with the 1:10,000 map 52m spot height (SH 60494 44177) which is 50m further ESE. Subsequent visit however suggests this W summit is indeed higher.	RHW	13/09/2015
Parked near gateway to cottages to north from where there was a permissive path through the lovely bluebell wood most of the way to the top. Parking would probably be better at the end of the road by the railway line. I thought the highest point was marked by a long neglected slate bench. Picked up the path again to continue on to Ynys Fer-las.	Herbert Anchovy	30/05/2015
