| Walked up from car parking near the Peep O'Day, Maynestone Road up to the new GR summit then headed South. Felt like an obstacle course climbing numerous dry stone walls with a Jack Russell under one arm!! Finally reached the trig point and turned E to pick up track down. A wonderful hill. | John Eley | 31/07/2017 |
