| Parking available in the grounds of Sparrowpit Village Hall (as you enter the village from the Castleton direction) ... alt 1213 ft. After crossing the first two fields the legal line of the path has been diverted. Instead of taking you diagonally across the third field into the trees, the path follows the edge of the field without entering into it, and straight into the wood. This serves us well, for, after entering the wood via a stile, it is possible to make a direct line for the summit. 1.14 miles return. | moorsman | 27/01/2016 |
