Work visit to a caravan parked in the trees near the top. Looked at some interesting stuff on a laptop. Only a short walk from the caravan to the top. Didn't find what we were looking for but the summit tick was an unexpected bonus.Herbert Anchovy05/09/2019
Whilst moored in Newtown Creek. Lovely wild flowers en route, in contrast to recent Hebridean visit. Summit in oak woodland by fence junction. Huge cut mark on nearby Elmsworth FarmDenise 02/06/2019
