Through a gap in the hedge from the road. HP is at mid-off on the cricket pitch if they are bowling from the right. | clivevilla | 09/11/2023 |

Road bike ride for some easy to access Tumps | visionset | 03/10/2023 |
Parking alongside entrance to cricket pitch. Met friendly groundsman preparing for a match. Unaware of the significance of his pitch but readily gave me permission to access summit. Also visited alternative summit at the crossroads to the south. Obvious mound in trees. | moorsman | 02/07/2023 |

Evening stroll around the village. Impossible to identify exact high point | Colin Crawford | 02/01/2017 |
Parked up by the entrance to Hanby House. The high point seemed to be around here or even slightly further north up the lane. | Wheelsy | 26/07/2016 |
1st of the last Three Leicestershire tumps. After visiting Woolsthorpe Manor (on the 350th birthday of Isaac Newton's birth). We (my mum and her friend Joyce) drove to Buckminster. I parked just outside the Tollemache Inn and proceeded to investigate the village for high points and reckon the highest point is near the Beech tree next to track (with old water pump in the corner with business offices just behind including village hall) just opposite from where we parked. The crossroads looks pretty flat. This is a pretty village. We continued onwards to Waltham-on-the-wolds. | Dazingdale | 03/04/2016 |
At E end of village is crossroads, School Lane leads off here; about 150m up lane at slight bend seemed possibly higher than road through village. | Aye Jimmy | 23/03/2016 |

Got out of van, wandered around, got back in again. Leicestershire completion, should have picked a better one than this. | ngthack | 14/02/2016 |

Well having just bagged the hilltop village of Bringhurst at sunset and enjoyed walking round the churchyard, I just wondered if there might be another village top TuMP on my route back to the A1 and I spied Buckminster hill!! What a bizarre and unsatisfactory bag. Arriving in darkness, there's not even any hint of falling ground anywhere. It's just totally flat. I had hoped that there might be a pub to stop for a drink or bite to eat but the local watering hole was actually closed 8.30 on a Sunday evening. Dead, dark, flat, village, distinctly untumping. | vegibagger | 13/09/2015 |
