Parked at lay-by took about two minutes. Ok view | nickywood1 | 29/05/2023 |
6.5 mile walk from following dale road from Sancton then onto wolds way at arras cottages then following hedge line to summit | The-Z-Man | 05/04/2023 |
From layby, wandered round obvious high bits and trig. Then down to South Cave | Flatfield | 22/01/2023 |
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. | gerrybowes | 01/09/2022 |
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 natural | henryfm | 25/06/2022 |
The trig pillar may be the HP but it's all so flat. All surrounding artificial structures visited | Colin Crawford | 07/10/2021 |
From Eastbound carpark to S. | jimbloomer | 14/08/2021 |
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 higher | pwheeler | 05/06/2021 |
Parked in layby to south. Visited trig, hedgeline, bunker and reservoir. | PGCE | 07/12/2020 |

on a walk around Market Weighton, Wolds Way, Sancton area. | joseph mitchell | 23/05/2019 |
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. | jonglew | 26/09/2018 |
Bike ride from Brough to Howden via 4 Tumps. | IanHHill | 29/03/2018 |

Car bagging with Dugswell. | Smudge | 17/12/2016 |
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. | moorsman | 25/09/2016 |
Parked at lay by. Just a few yards into field. Bunker is higher than tp but reservoir is even higher!! | Campbell Singer | 21/04/2016 |
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. | yorkie | 18/01/2016 |
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. | ngthack | 20/12/2015 |

Easy stroll from convenient parking layby. | Minto | 18/08/2014 |
About 100m walk from road towards mast and trig near side of cornfield. Bunker nearby and Arras water reservoir were both higher. | Aye Jimmy | 14/08/2014 |
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 Kernow1 | 25/06/2014 |
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 Ted | 19/01/2014 |
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 TRIG | vegibagger | 07/06/2013 |
RHW | 12/09/2004 | |
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. | yorkie | 18/11/2001 |
