Thanks to “Aye Jimmy” for an easy way up way up.Malcvolm23/03/2023
Route as Aye Jimmy to a pleasant Tump. There are still tyres adjacent to the HP but from a knoll just N there is a lovely view and a tempting N ridge (though we returned the same way). With Pete.pwheeler16/03/2023
Fourth hill in a 20 mile bike ride from Litton. Nice hill and views apart from the pile of tyres which did appear to be slightly lower than the high point. Also walked over to N end of ridge. Access from Long Lanr to the west.steveb200624/02/2023

Parked on the bend at entrance to Long Lane. Steep and short. 15 minutes up and down.Campbell Singer14/12/2016
L stroked the cows and calves whilst I made a short dash for the top through two gates just down the Limestone Way. We had passed by along this track 3 years ago as darkness fell doing the 56 mile Bullock Smithy hike. Another long walk now back to the car at Ashford via Taddington with a 20 minute spell with a search and rescue sea king helicopter going around and around overhead (training?)Chris Pearson11/07/2015
