From near end of the road Plas-y-fforest (SN 5804 0484). RoW up through muddy farmyard. Couldn't say if the 142m spot height or edge of forest, or indeed the small 140m contour was highest, but all 3 done.jonglew08/01/2024
Path starts just past the last of three houses on the left. It goes up through the woods to join another track which goes most of the way. At the near edge of another wood there is a path which takes you up to the ridge then over a bwf and back across a meadow.clivevilla14/06/2022
Good fp from SSW on the estate. Good parking. Through scruffy farmyard with cattle and onto track. Pasture summit.Campbell Singer28/11/2021
From sse, RoW from estate. Smaller southern 140co c1-2m lower by Seco hand level sighting both ways. (Useful as calibration as first time used in field). Hp at N edge pasture, about same just inside wood.RHW18/12/2016
