From car park to NW, a pleasant woodland walk (Willot's Wood Walk) to the summit by wooden bench. | gerrybowes | 29/12/2023 |
Started on a car park followed a path past a lake and then a cafe which was closed then to a bench at the top. With Dad, Dulcie and Mum. | speedyclimber | 26/12/2022 |
Also walked across to pt 245m to the south, better summit | Nick Canute | 25/06/2022 |
Lovely area with mixed woodland and impressive old sandstone quarry. | Wycombe Wanderer | 17/10/2021 |
From the N'most car pk on Hulme La, well made path to bench/HP, track to peer over quarry, then Trig pt by beacon. We walked back the last 10 m or so the other side of the road for the excellent clear views to the W. With brother, Pete. | pwheeler | 25/09/2021 |
Bagged summit and trig (Old GR) from nearby car park on Hulme Road but made a hasty retreat as a hail storm blew in. Returned later (approx. 16.00) to bag this again and summit by bench further across the hill. | briandavies | 16/02/2020 |
6 of 15 on 45 mile bike ride. Follolowed footpath trails round to summit bench. Nice area | The-Z-Man | 31/12/2019 |
Parked to NW, some dodgy looking characters in the other parked cars. Visited trig, quarry edge and on to HP by bench. | PeterD | 29/11/2019 |
Level grassy summit surrounded by gorse. Wooden bench at high point. | RichardM | 13/08/2019 |
On return drive from Stoke. | BobHancock | 25/07/2019 |
Orienteered here on many occasions. This time after a disappointing orienteering result, I sought consolation in seeking out this top. | JohnW | 12/05/2019 |
With my dad. | TLBW | 17/04/2019 |
Interesting hill due to quarrying. Short walk from car park. Walked with Toby. | Wheelsy | 17/04/2019 |
Short walk from car park | RobertP | 15/07/2018 |
Summit close to rim of impressive old quarry -a geological SSSI where rounded pebble beds were laid down during flash floods 200 million years ago. Too loose for rock climbing today but there is a feature referred to on a walkers map to this country park as the Old Man of Hoy - presumably a crumbly tower which would have been worth a look. | Chris Pearson | 06/04/2018 |
Short stroll from car park to NW. | rhalstead | 11/03/2018 |
1st of 8 logs today on a 35.08km walk from Longton to Blythe briddge via Cheadle. From Longton through an estate to the B5039 heading SE down St. Mary's road, NE up Nyewood Avenue into a section of rough land taking track onto Harrington Drive then up into Park Hall Country park taking paths before reaching the summit next to the bench. Continuing on to the former summit next to Trig pillar. | Dazingdale | 27/01/2018 |
Used car park to NW then bagged the trig and beacon before looking into the quarry before bagging the summit bench. | Dugswell2 | 14/01/2018 |
Started from Boltongate car park. 15 minute walk to TP. 35 metre ascent. | RoguePulsar | 05/12/2017 |
From east, carpark and follow tracks | Moorponder | 10/08/2017 |
From sizeable carpark by visitor centre. Bench atop hill is still there. What should be a really nice family friendly park is spoiled by a significant dog crap problem. Some people... | stig_nest | 29/04/2017 |
From CP near TP - combined with hospital visiting. Had orienteered here on a number of occasions but I thought I had better make sure of a HP visit. | summitsup | 26/04/2017 |
As for Clivevilla. Trig and beacon visited 17 April 2012. | arranc | 20/02/2017 |
Adderley Green to Cellarhead. Didn't realise that HP had been moved until now but relieved that I did investigate this area of the Park as well as the beacon. | Smudge | 05/02/2017 |
From car park, across road and along path to very easy summit with good views. Forecast: fog. Reality: beautiful sunshine and blue sky. | Campbell Singer | 29/12/2016 |
Re-bagged after change of location. | Alan Caine | 28/12/2016 |
With Cabe | simon and co | 04/12/2016 |
Parked in carpark SJ928452 for both Park Hall Hills. (Old GR) just up and across the road by the beacon and for other top I just followed the northerly edge of the country park to the bench. With Julie and Polly the dog. | David Evans | 05/11/2016 |
Detour on my way home from the day's main walk around Cheadle. Parked at the nearby car park and crossed road to visit trig/beacon and summit with bench. | davidpettit84 | 08/10/2016 |
From Country Park CP then to trig (top is in the ferns) on to new top by bench. | clivevilla | 22/07/2016 |
An easy stroll, across the road from the car park to the trig & beacon. Then further on to the summit and the bench. Clearly the park warden knew where the true summit was, although the beacon and trig are probably better situated for viewing from afar. | Minto | 29/04/2016 |
Easy amble from Old GR to this one next to bench. | Aye Jimmy | 12/03/2016 |
Quick re bag to reclaim Staffordshire. Seat appears to be at highpoint | RHW | 18/10/2015 |
Memorial seat on summit, if you need a rest after walking from the car park. | ngthack | 06/10/2015 |
Just reallocated 300m E. So had to visit before the heavy rains arrive. Neither point is visible from the other, so not obvious that this is 1m higher than the trig. Good track from car park at top of lane to small grassy knoll with commemorative bench at the top. | GordonAdshead | 05/10/2015 |
Did this on the same day as the old GR, which in itself was a revisit from the 1990s. Actually quite an interesting park, and you can see right down to Shropshire. | DanHolme | 20/12/2014 |
Deviation from best route while orienteering. | fasgadh | 07/10/2001 |
