Parked on lane to N. Short walk to summit.PGCE20/12/2021
Parked in the church carpark and ascended south on the bridleway. The high point seems to be on the footpath east of the hedge, where there are also good views.JohnW24/10/2021

Parking outside cemetery on A60. Took direct route through cemetery only to find it well fenced all round, so had to retreat and go around to N to use ROW that runs to the E. Antennas at the summit so not easy to locate natural HP. About 23m ascent. SoloRoguePulsar25/04/2021

I actually live about 5 minutes on foot from here and it's a regular route on my evening strolls. If you happen to come this way head east to enjoy trails through Sharphill Wood.Altheus31/08/2019
Parked to the North in Grainger Avenue SK582 355.David Evans18/08/2019
Sunny walk up track from north to field than checked out the graveyard.Dugswell223/02/2019
Nipped out during lunch break to bag this one. Started from south and walked up Old Road. Great views over the citydazedemon21/02/2019
From North up old road track to reservoir. And then into field by mast. Also visited other HP in cemeteryPeterD02/09/2018
Parked in Grainger Avenue. HP is the reservoir top and the gate has a handy handle so can be scaled. Highest notherwise seems to be in the trees at the edge of the field the other side of the track.clivevilla10/04/2018
Parked near Grainger Ave and followed RoW S to E side of reservoir, which looked higher at the time. Back to the car and drove into cemetery and parked near chapel. Difficult to tell high point but appeared to be near SW corner of reservoir. Felt a bit odd because there was a funeral going on in the chapel.Wheelsy05/01/2018
Parked on residential Grainger Ave. RoW due S to resr, then back N and into cemetery for the chapel. Not able to say if it was higher or not. With Carole Engel.jonglew28/12/2017
Both summits visited but that near chapel was not significantly different to that near the resrcarole engel28/12/2017

A walk around the covered reservoir and the chapel amused by the fire assembly point sign at the back of the crematorium. None the wiser where the high point of this flat topped hill actually is. My preference is the fence on W side of reservoir though ground on E side of chapel similar height. Good views out over the Trent valley from W side of chapel. A warm and muggy afternoon.RichardM02/08/2016

From bend in A60 to the north. South along track/fp to second of two fps going east. You can't get through from main cemetary & crematorium. Big high green fence.ngthack10/03/2016
Another graveyard summit. looks like HP is next to reservoir fence in Catholic section of cemetery. Brings my graveyard summits to 6, I think.Campbell Singer15/01/2016
Parked in cemetery close to the the crematorium. Walked up through graves (one being filled in as we passed) and found HP next to reservoir fence.Barbara Singer15/01/2016
After nightmare drive through middle of Nottingham from TuMPs to the north. Visited couple of possible high points. Enormous cemetery nearby. (Got £60 fine for driving in bus lane; £30 if paid within 14 days).Aye Jimmy20/05/2015
Last hill of the day, starting from East Leake near Rushcliffe Halt,I climbed up Court hill,Gotham hill and then Brands hill before walking through Clifton abd then Ruddington on a direct approach. Ground near fence of cemetary on Bridleway side seems the highest natural point. New fencing around covered reservoir. Descent via fp onto A60 and then right onto Boundary road to catch bus back into Nottingham.Dazingdale30/01/2015
Frpm A60, agree top appears to be East side of Bridleway but top corner of crematoriuum could be as highBramley09/10/2014

Wet day, so had a bus ride around Nottingham. Walked North from A52 on bridleway, over the hill to A60, then finished up at Asda.Richard Gunn08/11/2013
Breaking into reservoirs isn't my cup of tea; highest natural spot appears to be on eastern side of the transmitters, on the public footpath - but walk around the top of the cemetary if you want to bag it the Marilyns way.DanHolme28/09/2013
Mound E side of b/way highest SK 58098 35086, 85g/84s; SW cnr resr SK 57993 35051 seems lower. from N, thru cemy; slender gap in fence allows return along b/w RHW11/02/2012
