| Walked from Bridport with my friend Pam, on the way to Colmer's hill. It was a lovely day just perfect. | derlan | 14/08/2023 |
| Staying in Bridport overnight with work so it would have been rude not to do a circuit of the 3 tumps which are all virtually in the town. | Mark Sims | 03/08/2023 |
| Walked over from Simondsbury to Bridport. The estate has constructed new, unmetalled roads so the RoWs are hard to follow and a bit overgrown. We gave up and followed the tracks to SY 4524 9355 where the field path up to the woods was obvious. Then woodland trust paths and RoWs, nice bench to sit by summit; flowery grassland with open views, back into woods and a bit of care needed to get on the right path down to Park Road- only signed as a path. Our walk over 3 Tumps (+1 pure bag) finished at The Tiger, but then we had an interesting walk back through narrow lanes and alleys to the River Brit and back to West Bay (George, then holiday let). With Pete, fine sunny weather. | pwheeler | 09/06/2023 |
