Parked at Great Chart and rambled up the diverted brideleway. | PhilipChaston | 08/05/2023 |
From point 64. The bridleway passing N of the summit has been redirected, but handly this actually takes it closer to the summit. This was the only one of the 9 Tumps visited today that actually required a decent walk. | Mark Jackson | 07/01/2023 |
From SE on BW through farm, on cold clear morning with puddles still frozen, then followed fence to top. Pond to west lower. Kent completion. | PeterD | 29/11/2021 |
Verge parking off Goldwell Lane at point 64 (TQ 96578 42180). The area to the west has been dug out to make a motocross track. | DC11main | 13/06/2021 |
As others, from Great Chart church. | PGCE | 24/11/2020 |

Parked on road by church to south. En route to Channel Tunnel. HP at field junction in nettles. | Denise | 22/08/2020 |
From the pleasant village of Great Chart on farm track then field edge to messy summit. Natural high point possibly just W of fence junction in trees/scrub. Didn't see the pond mentioned in the previous logs. | RichardM | 22/08/2020 |
Easy walk from 64 on Goldwell Lane. | GordonAdshead | 30/08/2019 |
Cycled from tunbridge wells to ashford | The-Z-Man | 01/07/2019 |
PArked opp the church. RoW through the farm. HP possibly on the field boundary, seemed a bit higher than the OS spot height. | jonglew | 11/11/2018 |
Ashford to Pluckley. | Smudge | 07/01/2018 |
Tiptoed under a full moon just before midnight through the sleeping cows in barns, squeezed past a monster combined harvester and failed to let a sleeping dog lie. Followed ROW /concrete track for 15 minutes before gate and grass to the highpoint then back again. Traffic jam of lorries even gone midnight at Ashford due to Operation stack -Calais port closed so 5000 lorries parked up on the closed M20 and anywhere else they could squash off the surrounding roads. One lorry had toppled onto its side and was being righted by a huge mobile crane. Home at 1.30am having completed the Kent Tumps on Goldwell Hill... until discovery of Sandown Park tump. | Chris Pearson | 01/07/2015 |
