My final summit of the day, having bagged Whitehills Brink, Teggs nose, High moor and Shutlingsloe. I walked up from Wildboarclough on minor road to A54 jct and a nice track leads up onto the moor, the fenceline curves around to the East/NE and I climbed up onto the highest point although that is somewhat difficult to determine. Nice expansive views though, great for sunsets. Looking South you see the dome of Tagsclough hill. 
I walked around the summit area just to mnake sure and then followed fenceline down to pick up footpath heading North, that then profiles around Robins Clough and from there it arrives at Cut-thorn, a nice track leading to Three Shires head. | Dazingdale | 08/12/2013 |
Parking only available on the minor road to Wildboarclough. From here a simple 20 minutes walk along a good track with a small detour to reach the summit. | moorsman | 19/03/2013 |
With Whetstone Edge. | David Gradwell | 28/11/2010 |

OK summit & view. FP from road jct to NW (parking on minor rd) | RHW | 25/01/2003 |
I'm not sure if I left the path and went to the highest point but I would have gone through its contour ring. I definitely went to the top on 30/06/2020. | Alan Moore | 21/02/1982 |
