| RoW then up through the trees, visited all areas. | robertphillips | 26/03/2023 |
| 08:30, 0 degrees (max 5 later) sunny spells. | Wycombe Wanderer | 20/01/2023 |
| Roadside verge parking due S (NZ 0765 6833). RoW until due W of summit, then a little tricky but not too bad to negotiate brambles/ditch/wall/pheasant fencing to gain the pleasant woodland for an easy walk up. Retracing steps for the return seemed as good as anything else. | jonglew | 27/12/2022 |
| From Harlow hill. Found the high point in the pine woods behind the reservoir | Andrew Simmons | 31/07/2022 |

| From the road to S. Room to park a car by the gate. Along the footpath on the W side of the woodland. Half way up crossed over to the E side. Up through the field then over the wall into the woodland to the HP. | JohnR | 15/01/2022 |
| Horsley to Heddon-on-the-Wall walk visiting Horsley Hill, Harlow Hill, Turpin's Hill, Heddon Laws and Heddon Common. | RobB | 08/10/2021 |
| Parking for one car in the narrow lane due east. Through the cut grass paths in clay pigeon shoot to wood and short climb up through trees. | Campbell Singer | 21/09/2021 |
| Parking alongside the church or postbox in Harlow Hill village. Walk west, ignoring the first footpath sign as far as the end of the wood. Ignore the second sign and go through the adjacent gate. From a here a path leads all the way to the summit after climbing some steps. Don't go through the trees as they deteriorate into head high brambles. | moorsman | 02/07/2021 |
| Parked on track to east and went through ex quarry landscaped area which then involved a short scramble up to summit area in woods. WWII gun emplacement up there too. Went back round the edge of the field to avoid reverse scramble with my injured leg. | clivevilla | 04/06/2021 |
| Parked by gate NZ 0778 6876. Amazing place - lots mown grass walkways in clay pigeon area. Top is atop a huge cliff. Steps up side of building ab NZ 07641 68736 lead to summit | carole engel | 30/07/2019 |
| From south, track then up to pill box and into woods with C. Clay pidgeon shoot in quarry had just finished. | PeterD | 23/12/2018 |
| High point in wood beyond reservoir | cjo | 11/03/2017 |
| High point in wood definitely higher according to GPS readings. | andrew brown | 14/10/2016 |
| Seemed like the spot in the pinewood to me | Colin Crawford | 09/08/2016 |
| after Heddon Law, I wandered here, there and everywhere on this one! The best bit isn't the top but that hidden quarry. | Lou | 10/07/2016 |
| From s, AJ route. Pretty sure hp in pinewood higher but pillbox visited and an interesting spot | RHW | 12/03/2016 |
| From S, end of narrow wood with f/p sign plus birdbox. Through wood to high point at N end. Then over to the pillbox outside. Thought ground inside the wood was maybe higher than long grass/brambly terrain near the pillbox. Night-time baggers beware - quarry face E of pillbox! | Aye Jimmy | 27/01/2016 |
| From B6318. I approached by the PRoW from the NW, and thought the high point was in the woodland. After climbing the wall I logged the highpoint as NZ 07633 68689, but it looked as though a point outside the wood to the NE may be higher. That was not accessible from the wood, so I returned to the B6318 and walked in from a minor road through the middle of the Harlow Hill complex. This brought me out on the east of the hill where there is a disused quarry. Entering that I found some convenient steps which brought me out to the high point I had seen earlier - adjacent to an old wartime pillbox - this proved to be a few metres higher than my first point in the wood. So I made the summit 07665 68709. A lot of effort for a nondescript top! | Crib Goch | 07/08/2014 |
| Detour off Hadrian's Wall Path. Logged both the high point in the woods and the pill box, thought the woods were possibly higher. | welshyboyo | 04/05/2014 |
| Bowness to Wallsend | jimbloomer | 04/04/2014 |
| With friends from uni doing Hadrian's Wall. Camped at Harlow Hill farm at end of first day and nipped up this one in the evening. Difficulty getting to the top across a rough field. | Mark Jackson | 17/07/2011 |
