From S, derelict gatehouse, no access issues nowadays. 2 masts in summit compound, securely fenced but nothing higher inside and modified ground anyway.RHW09/11/2014
Five minute walk from layby on A696, across access land to compound containing telecoms masts. High point adjacent to the metal security fence - I went with NY94510,89613 on the north side, but ground on south side seems as high.Crib Goch30/09/2014
Quick foray from road when travelling to Wallington from Redesdale. Trig remnant, probably not on summit. Lots of antennae/fencing, good views though of Northumberland.nordicstar27/10/2013
