Not sure the precise summit is now accessible to the public. Fairly prominent sign requests stay out of the area, sign on gate requests keep on path. Route round back locked, used highest publicly accessible point (up behind ice house)amarillo-oro-como07/12/2019
From Dynevor Castle through the Deer Park to wooded summit with covered reservoir. We take the high point as ground midway between two oaks on NE side of reservoir. Small bracken covered earth mound at NW corner is higher but man-made.RichardM26/07/2019
From se, NT car park. Level summit by big oak, with a grassy steep mound 50m to W, 2m higher but apparently manmade. NB Deer Park closes at 3pmRHW18/12/2016

Took Mrs Dusty to Dynevor Park this morning. Unable to accompany me as hill is in deer park and our dog was not able to enter area. Saw about 150 deer from about 40yds. High point near what looks to be Victorian reservoir.Dusty06/04/2015
