There's even a handy flight of steps on the other side of the reservoir to add to the easiness of the walk.Martin R22/10/2023
possibly the dullest summit, pancake flat, trig point thoughTrantham Clan29/04/2023
Parked at 88830 38229 and up the track towards the organic farm. Trig and hp are within the reservoir compound so I climbed that too.clivevilla20/01/2023
From East along PROW. High point probably near trig pillar.cjo20/04/2022
From west, there’s a small parking area with room for 4 cars at a bend in the road that goes south form Monkton Deverill. Much nicer route than from the lay-by on the A350. Probably didn’t chose the best day as it was blowing gale and then horizontal snow as I got near the top.Swindon Bagger27/11/2021
Parked in wide farm track opposites start of fp. Good brisk walk to the.top. Fine views from top of reservoir.Campbell Singer13/10/2021
As others, along track (RoW) from the A350 to ENE. Trig, summit area and reservoir which is easy (climbed over locked gate) and worth it for the extra views.pwheeler22/09/2021
Cheeky parking (1 car) by church in Brixton Deverill.jimbloomer24/07/2021
From ENE bridleway as othersMark Sims01/07/2021
From Brixton Deverill - HP by trig & next to newish reservoir not marked on the map.DanMaisieBex05/09/2020
As others, along track from the A350. Trig, summit area and reservoir.PGCE26/08/2020
As others, along track from the A350.fosal2914/02/2020
Natural HP apparently near Trig at corner of grass covered reservoir within enclosure with gate. Parked on east side of A350 road in by way and approached on track from E. Straightforward on grey day.Denise 11/01/2020
On the bridleway from the ENE in gusting SW wind. Levelish summit area with covered reservoir and trig pillar within low BWF. Difficult to decide on a high point. Extensive if uninspiring views.RichardM11/01/2020
From the A350 to the east. FP to barn, trig with reservoir next to it.PeterD09/06/2019
From ENE on path. Lots of wall brown butterflies. Ground to west of trig probably the highest natural ground but visited trig and covered reservoir as well to make certain of it.Herbert Anchovy03/08/2018
From E.dal07/04/2018
Visited trig, covered reservoir and ground to the west.Adrian19/11/2016
Mid evening now and slightly weary for my 34th mile for this last of an 18 Tumps day. Just filing in a few gaps before returning home to complete a 20 hr full day out - the heart of which was an 8 hr 26 mile circuit over 10 Tumps around Warminster. Felt like Id had my moneys worth, and on a beautiful warm day.Chris Pearson30/07/2016
Approached from the E. There is a large reservoir now which overtops the trig by about 5 metres so take your pick - I bagged both.Chris Peart22/01/2015
