6.5 mile walk from following dale road from Sancton then onto wolds way at arras cottages then following hedge line to summitThe-Z-Man05/04/2023
From layby, wandered round obvious high bits and trig. Then down to South CaveFlatfield22/01/2023
From large lay-by on A1079 Eastbound, a short walk N. along track to trig point & ground 30m SE of trig point; both lie in stubble close to track.gerrybowes01/09/2022
The track from the layby to the south drops after the mast to TP. The hedge to the left of the track (west) is on a ridge, with a gap in the hedge at the crest, probable HP. The ridge seems permanent if not entirely naturalhenryfm25/06/2022
The trig pillar may be the HP but it's all so flat. All surrounding artificial structures visitedColin Crawford07/10/2021

Bagging by car and top deck of bus - A1079 a regularly used road in the late 1980s so no point singling out a date. Stopped by with Pete in 2021 and visited the Trig- still thought the crown of the road higherpwheeler05/06/2021

From the long layby on the A1079 immediately S; over field gate. Trig pillar maybe at the HP, or might be on the field boundary. Chanced upon the co-located (unsecured) ROC post - couldn't resist a peak inside.jonglew26/09/2018

Revisit as the last time there was a thunderstorm taking place. Good parking directly alongside the access path. Short walk through an easy to open gate. Trig appears the highest natural ground though other man made features are higher.moorsman25/09/2016
Parked at lay by. Just a few yards into field. Bunker is higher than tp but reservoir is even higher!!Campbell Singer21/04/2016
Easy approach to the triangulation pillar from the layby. Resisted the temptation to climb down the ladder into the nearby bunker as I forgot to bring a torch.yorkie18/01/2016
From road. The bunker is an ROC Cold War nuclear monitoring post. Other Tumps with these on, are Mellor Moor (16726) & Church Hill nearby at Holme on Spalding Moor.ngthack20/12/2015

About 100m walk from road towards mast and trig near side of cornfield. Bunker nearby and Arras water reservoir were both higher.Aye Jimmy14/08/2014
Parked on lane by Methodist church at SE 89923 39310. Took bridleway for some 2km NE between crop and sheep fields, then RoW NNW, and up to gate on busy A1079. Unlocked gate leads to trig in wheat field, overtopped by manmade mound to east and covered reservoir to west near aerial. Returned by outward route.Man of Kernow125/06/2014
After visiting the trig point I had a wander around, including to the opposite side of the road, as a half felt the high point was over there.Father Ted19/01/2014
DIVERSION OFF INTO THE FIELD FOR THE TRIG, NOT KNOWING AT THE TIME THAT IT WAS ALSO A TUMP. SLIGHT CURVE ON WESTERN FACING TOP OF THE TRIGvegibagger07/06/2013

Easy approach from the layby on A1079. Cluttered summit area with covered reservoir, transmitter masks, cold war bunker and a triangulation pillar! Was only interested in the trig pillar at the time and didn't realize this was a Tump.yorkie18/11/2001
