Went to 3 Trigs of Penpole, Shirehampton GC and KingsWeston from Shirehampton potholed CO. Then came up to visit top in woods. The KingsWeston Trig was down a well trodden route which leads to house that Trig overlooks.PeterD27/02/2024

After work quick blast in suit - oops muddy.Trantham Clan17/02/2023
On a day of Bristol prehistory. After a visit to Badock's Wood round barrow, walked along the Community Forest Path through the Blaise Castle estate to Henbury hillfort. The area down at Echo's Gate was incredibly slippery with mud. Up to King's Weston hillfort then walked the length of the ridge. Followed the CFP to Clifton hillfort and observatory via the top on Durdham Down.thesweetcheat28/01/2023

A pleasant stroll along a grassy ridge with wooded sides from Shirehampton free carpark to the west, including an awkward hunt for the trig.Denise 07/04/2019
One of those ridges where it always looks convincingly higher some where else, the Abney sors out the deception. Wide grassy ridge flanked with wild scruffy woodland. High point 8m into woods of ivy covered trees and ground on N side of the grassy swathe.RichardM07/04/2019

Parked on Southwood Close (little spur road off Southwood Drive), easy paths leading up.DC11main17/03/2017
In the last throes of daylight on a dank February evening at 5.30pm. A long jog from Ne along the wide summit grassy avenue along the crest covering all possible high points and beyond .. slippery mud not helpful to a running bag (better underfoot and sheltered on twisty small path in trees). Exchanged grimaces with a sole dog walker.Chris Pearson06/02/2017

From the large car park to the NW. Across a very busy park and up a steep wooded slope to summit next to tower. Fine views eastward from HP. Very pleasant urban top. Also did alternative top about 600 mets to SW.Campbell Singer25/07/2015
