Circuit from Redbook. | PGCE | 04/02/2024 |
Third of four from Redbrook. Steeply up lane by primary school, SE on forest road to col and easily up pasture edge to top. Back to the col for Old Hills. | milimana | 23/06/2022 |
23km walk from home taking in Old Hills & Astridge Hill (and skirting Bircham Wood, already bagged). | Tony J | 21/03/2020 |
Five Acres to Coleford. Anti-c/w loop from col to N but lost the ROW descent which seemed to disappear into a field of maize before reappearing lower down. Summit is a brash covered jumble of modern stone & earth deposits between pasture & light woodland. | Smudge | 19/01/2020 |
Followed the ORPA up from Redbrook to the col. I backed out of attempting Old Hills where all the fields had been recently ploughed and took the FP up Astridge to the ruin on the summit.Returned via the serene valley that loops around this hill to Redbrook. | Rob Rees | 29/12/2019 |
Pleasant enough circular from Newland Church. | rhalstead | 26/01/2019 |
From Newland, down the road past the church, down a steep lane then across and up the pasture. | clivevilla | 04/12/2018 |
