Parking for two cars at dip just before Ewartly Shank. Road to this point has many pot holes. We followed Salters Road until we reached a metal gate just after the high point. From there a very good ATV track leads all the way to the summit. | Crumblie2 | 24/03/2024 |
A 26k clockwise round of 6 hills on a very windy day but from Bloodybush the wind was behind me. Made a mistake and descended to forest track to South where I found it choked with windthrow. Might have been better to continue on to Wether Law for an easier return to Clennell. | NormanW | 23/03/2024 |
From Wedder Leap car park via Uswayford and Bloodybush Edge returning by same route. No easy track to avoid return via Bloodybush Edge summit. | webmaster | 29/09/2023 |

Hartside Farm > Linhope > Low Bleakhope > High Bleakhope > Bloodybush Edge > Cushat Law > Salters Road > Alnhammoor > Hartside Farm. Solo walk. Fine but largely overcast day with a fair breeze. Not the most exciting hills so no surprise I only saw two other walkers at a distance. | johnkaysleftleg | 09/08/2023 |
From Wedder Leap car park: Middle Hill, the Middle, Bloodybush Edge and Cushat Law. Overcast day, difficult walk due to blisters and a virus. Abandoned plans to include Windy Gyle and will return another day. | Lazylizzie | 05/07/2023 |

From Shill Moor down S shoulder to the bridleway. Found ATV track (NT9444 1462), 80m W of a gate, bit confusing lower down, but eventually followed all the way up Bush Knowe to the summit. Misty most of the way, but cleared as we came down. Back via Alnhammoor to Hartside. | LizH | 12/05/2023 |
From Alwinton, via Clennel Street, descent into Kidlandlee Dean Road int Kidland Forest. Follow forest track to Milkhope, round Dryhope Hill to Black Butt. Followed fence line to Cushat Law and on to Bloodybush Edge. On to Yarnspath Law and descent into forest via, Whiteburnshank, Nettlehope Hill, Peat Law, and Wholehope. Descent into Alwinton via Clennell Street. | raymooremanx | 03/09/2022 |
Walked over from Hogdon Law. Much easier than expected - no bog and a fairly easy to follow quad bike track from Hogdon Law to the fence a few hundred yards north west of Black Butt. Easy to follow along the fence line from there. Dropped back to Salters Raod. Needless to say didn't see anyone all day. | Walker Dan | 11/07/2022 |
Nuttall walk 8.2 with a few diversions in the forrest to negotiate fallen trees. With R. | Dan Baddeley | 03/06/2022 |
4 of 5: From Bloodybush Edge. With Karen. | ChrisR | 19/04/2022 |
Parking at cattle grid before Ewartly Shank NT963126 after 2 miles of potholes. Excellent ATV TK to Hogdon Law. ATV TK continues, poorer, SW, but dives off R when hags carpeted by energy sapping deep soft veg encountered (direct, 4.5 out of 5 where 5 = purgatory), mitigated by my stumbling upon a linear grough (suspect ATV TK works around, R, to fence jcn at NT942120). ATV TK to Wether Cairn and back, then on around fences to Cushat Law, Bloodybush Edge via ATV TKs from good to dire quality. Down to Salters Road, out to Lint Lands and back, then along Salters Road to parking. Salters Road is not a breeze, grassy parts are slippery, non-grassy parts are loose rubble and it makes three descents and re-ascents, each smaller, fortunately. | Isbjorn | 26/09/2021 |

Nuttall 8.2. Parked at Wedder Leap. Bloodybush Edge > Cushat Law > Bloodybush Edge > Windy Gyle. Forest track up from Uswayford has many fallen trees across the path, but all passable. Path to W of Bloodybush Edge is S of the fence. From Bloodybush edge to Cushat Law it is N of it. | Peter_W_Mitchell | 17/06/2021 |
Following Bloodybush following Nuttalls walk 8.2 | colinfielding | 14/06/2021 |
With K. Parked at cattle grid before Ewarty Shank and did loop with Shill Moor returning via Hogdon Law. Lots of folk about, shy estate workers and hikers. | Ashley | 27/05/2021 |
From Shill Moor, an ATV track leads easily down to Salter's Road, from which another one leads up over Bush Knowe all the way to the top. Clear views all the way to Cross Fell today and a good shelter for our lunch stop. | milimana | 27/05/2021 |
Room for a couple of cars at the cattle grid 1km S of Ewartly Shank. Farm track > Hogdon Law, then across > Wether Cairn, then followed fences > Cushat Law > Bloodybush Edge > Lint Lands. Returned via Salter's Road. Reasonably solid under foot after a very dry April but expect lots of boggy bits most other times. | JohnR | 24/04/2021 |
After descending down the Southern side of Shill Moor I crossed over Salters Road track and headed uphill towards Bush Knowe. Theres no path to follow this low down so I just trudged my way through the heather. On reaching Bush Knowe I found the landrover track which took me all the way to the top of Cushat Law at 615mts. Theres a nice shelter at the top so I grabbed myself something to eat and drink. Next stop Bloodybush Edge | JamesJones | 17/03/2021 |
From Alwinton. Up Clennell Street to Saughy Hill, Nettlehope Hill, Yarnspath Hill, Bloodybush Edge, Cushat Law, Wether Cairn, down by Allerhope Burn. | PGCE | 11/12/2020 |
From Low Bleakhope | Jim T | 31/08/2020 |
From Wether Cairn, going pretty reasonable after a couple of hot dry days. On to Bloodybush Edge. | agentmancuso | 01/08/2020 |
A splendid but lengthy round of 4 Deweys and 2 Nuttalls from the cattle grid at NT 964 126. Followed the farm track to Hogdon Law, then cross country to the trig at Wether Cairn. The forest fence is then a clear if wet navigational aid over Cushat Law and Bloodybush Edge to Yarnspath Law. Made the mistake of trying to cut round the side of Bloodybush Edge above the forest to the Salters Road at NT 904 157. Very deep heather with hidden ditches, I would have been far better going down Uswayford and along the FP to the Satler's Road, I am sure. From the pass a quick out and back to Lint Lands, then east down the Salter's Road to the road alongside the R Breamish to Low Bleakhope. Keeping to the Salter's Road up to just before the field boundary where an ATV track takes one up to Shill Moor. Back to the road and along it to the starting point. Much of the walk gives one a feeling of remoteness and good views of the surrounding hills. 27km with 1000m of ascent in 8 hours. (S) | silveracorn_alan | 11/07/2020 |
Parked at Hartside. Shill Moor, Cushat Law, Bloodybush Edge, Lint Lands, Comb Fell, Hedgehope Fell, Great Standrop (both tops), Ritto Hill. | PGCE | 14/05/2020 |
What a throbber. Followed the book from Wedder leap over Bloodybush and the fence to the summit and returned the same way. Utter bog fest | Aristotle Chip | 18/02/2020 |
A good 8 top round C/W from near hartside, shill moor, cushat law, bloodybush edge, lint lands, comb fell, hedgehope hill, dunmoor hill, ritto hill. | robertphillips | 26/01/2020 |

From cattle grid (NT 9640 1266) solo 14 mile circular: Hogdon Law -> Wether Cairn -> Cushat Law -> Bloodybush Edge -> Lint Lands -> Shill Moor -> High Knowes. | jonglew | 08/11/2019 |
Fairly easy ascent from Bloodbush Edge over marshy ground as part of the Cheviot Six 26mile hike. Summit was covered in cloud and the last rays of the sun were rapidly departing. Followed the wrong burn off (Smalehope) instead of Hareshaw Cleugh resulting in having to go over the top of Bush Knowe to get back on track. Picked up road at Low Bleakhope and followed it back to Hartside. Arrived back at car at 11:30pm.

Two day walk of the Cheviot hills with Ben. First day: The Cheviot > Windy Gyle. Second day: Bloodybush Edge > Cushat Law > Comb Fell > Hedgehope Hill. | axoree | 14/07/2019 |
Parked at cattle grid GR 964 127. Good track goes around Hogdon Law and up to summit. Then heather bashing across to fence near Black Butt then followed fence upto WeatherCairn. 4x4 tracks on west side. Return to Black Butt and along fences to Cushat Law and Bloodybush Edge, mainly on 4x4 tracks but rutted and boggy. Went down across Salters road up to Lint Lands. Returned to Salters road for a long trek back passing over High Knowes | mart0797 | 04/07/2019 |
North of Tyne MRT Alwinton challenge | Gary Heath | 16/06/2019 |
nattalls route 8.1 but with out windy 
 
very hard going up throw the bogs and the heather to the summit of bloodybush edge and then over to the summit the only paths over to Cushat Law where the quad tracks and even most of them where very very wet but the shelter on the summit as it started to rain was very welcoming 
 
this walk is longer than you think and quite hard going | Darren-443 | 26/05/2019 |
Nuttall walk | Ruth | 24/11/2018 |
From road at 859114. Room to park several vehicles. To Uswayford on bike then on foot via path SE to ridge. Path along south side of fence to summit of Bloodybush Edge. Continued along north side of fence to Cushat Law. Wet and boggy in places due to passage of quad bikes, but no major problems. Windy Gyle from the SE on return route. | Winterfloodian | 20/10/2018 |
From Alwinton up past the camp site and on through the woods to just below summit. | nickywood1 | 04/08/2018 |

As part of a reccie for the Cheviot Goat Ultra with Pete.Very wet underfoot. | Lykewake42 | 18/11/2017 |
Cycled from Alwinton north to top of Kisdon Forest then walked up to summit, before doing the boggy trip along to Bloodybush Edge. | IanHHill | 01/11/2017 |
The boggy ground between Bloodybush and Cushat is bad but not nearly as bad as the alternative return to the Wedder Leap car park which I was 'advised' to take, i.e. drop south from Cushat (a promisingly easy start) and follow the logging roads and footpaths back to Fairhaugh. The roads are fine but the map-marked paths are overgrown/virtually non-existant and there's (more obviously) a lot of re-ascent involved. Nearly 3hr of hard going. Not recommended! | Tony S | 04/08/2017 |
From picnic site at Barrowburn, via Middle Hill, fording Usway Burn (easy with low water level), up slope to Yarnsparth Law, then on rough paths over Bloodybush Edge and then long walk out to Cushat Law. Retraced route to slope below Bloodybush Edge, then contoured lower slope of hill northish over rough heather to Salter's Road. Followed this good track to the border ridge, then SW to Windy Gyle and return to start via Rowhope. Quite a trek. | Cas-gwent | 20/07/2017 |
Reached whilst walking the Northern Crossway. | WAYNE ROWLETT | 26/06/2017 |
