Parked up at Road end to North, Lesley waited in car. Three ferociously barking dogs behind fencing did not deter me, as others turning right to go direct up slope. A nice steady walk up then bypassed central section and climbed steeply to the top with good views. Descent similar but descended central portion using birch trees to descend. Lesley and i headed off to Erdigg afterwards but nice to get another tump off the Wrexham list... | Dazingdale | 24/03/2024 |
A half day out exploring some of the Clywdian Range AoOB | Alfa1M | 03/11/2023 |
Circuit from Rhosrobin while car being serviced via Wat's Dyke Way. Good view from the top. | JohnIvor | 06/10/2022 |
From North, path initally dank and dreary but after right turn the new growth silver birch is quite pleasant for a reclaimed wilderness kind of way. | cjo | 28/08/2022 |
Parked by the church in Gresford, then followed FP, lane FP down to and across dual carriageway, up track to lower level and then more steeply up to flat top. | PeterD | 11/04/2022 |
Room to park at end of lane to N. at SJ 3371 5414 - Through gate & E. along path for about 100m, turned right & up good path before a steep climb up over spoil to the summit in NW corner. Good viewpoint. (S) | gerrybowes | 07/02/2022 |
Slightly odd, being on top of an isolated mound in a valley. Less steep than some bings (coal spoil) and flat topped with good views. Accessed from North Wexham Premier Inn which involves crossing the A 483. Location of a terrible mine explosion and fire in 1934 which killed 266 miners. | Denise | 30/01/2022 |
From the Premiere Inn - Gresford with exciting crossing of the busy A483 by deservedly little used footpath. Track up NE flank of colliery spoil to NE plateau then steeply up between trees to compact levelish summit. Good views. Popular with trail bikers but all quiet this morning. | RichardM | 30/01/2022 |
Didn't fancy getting stuck in mud at Lane end, so parked at entrance to Worm Wood SJ 33502 54418. Afterwards drove round to the Gresford Mine disaster memorial. 
My final hill in the SW quadrant of the 100km radius circle from my home address. That just leaves the SE corner of section 34D. | Martin R | 20/11/2021 |
Parked at the end of the lane and worked my way up through the woods and the paths. There seems to be a bit of an anomaly which allows man made slagheaps to be hills but man made features on other hills do not count. | clivevilla | 21/05/2020 |
Pretty similar to Campbell. Coal scree ? | Mark Sims | 20/02/2020 |
Driving back to SW Wales from Northumberland. Needed to stretch legs. | Dusty | 10/02/2020 |
From road end, a very muddy carpark/turning circle. From there up a muddy track to an obvious right turn which almost looks like concrete. An easy climb up to a flat area and a steep incline up bike tracks to table top summit. Easy enough and as with all slag heap tops the view only partly compensates for the sheer ugliness of the spoil. Absolute nonsense that these are considered hills. | stig_nest | 27/01/2020 |
Parked to the North at the end of the road SJ336541, then route as Campbell Singer. | David Evans | 18/11/2019 |
From the cp to north at end of lane. Turned right at the private access sign. Found a bit of a break in the new plantings up to a plateau and then straight up a steep incline to a very flat top which would make a good bowling green (if there was some grass). | Campbell Singer | 24/10/2019 |
4/4 the best of a slag bunch | tumpawumpa | 01/01/2019 |
From well used parking spot at lane end to N. Three trail bikes went over top whilst I was there. | Aye Jimmy | 01/04/2018 |
From the end of the minor road to North. | Rob50 | 31/03/2018 |
First hill on a day when I did 2 Marilyns, 4 Tumps, a Hump, 3 trigs & 2 FBMs. Great weather, superb views - a day to remember. Wrexham regained. | ngthack | 25/03/2018 |
From N. Trees almost all the way up, which overtop the summit. Summit area quite small, and regularly driven on by trail bikes, hence the only vegetation is confined to the edges (the summit is on grass). The area as a whole is very much reclaimed by nature. | RHW | 17/02/2018 |
