Parked at end of road and asked at Stubbings | DC11main | 13/04/2022 |
Don't wait for a drought ... follow this easy route! Parking available in a layby 500m east of the entrance to High Haw Leas kennels or on the verge immediately before it. Safe walk along the road as far as point 107 then left and follow the mud and stone track south to the railway. Go over or under the railway and look south for a tubular gate 100m away slightly to the right. This gives access to a field which you can cross diagonally to reach Black Robin Beck. Parallel the beck along the field edges until you come to a non-barbed wire fence forming a right angle alongside the beckside trees. Don't cross this fence instead drop into the trees. A small keepers track leads south and keeps you out of sight of the farms. Step aross the side beck then head upwards to a disused metal gate (with a Please Close the Gate sign on it). Over the gate and 2 field edges to the summit. A doddle and totally hidden. | moorsman | 18/11/2021 |
17:30, 24 degrees, calm, sunny at Binsoe to NNE. Followed track, crossed disused railway then took a challenging route avoiding field with working combine harvester, and South Cote, rescuing a hare from a snare en-route. Returned carefully avoiding Stubbings Farm with several collies. A 2 hour 15 min epic with a patient and sporting Miranda. | Wycombe Wanderer | 24/08/2019 |
Tanfield Lodge is occupied by a verbally abusive GOML. | Martin R | 29/01/2019 |
13.23 from Stubbins farm with permission and helpful advice. Quagmire of mud on the track at low point. Pheasants galore amongst the long grasses and foliage just waiting for ignorant bastards with fat wallets, small brains and zero morals to blast them out of the sky for fun. Wake up world. | vegibagger | 02/01/2019 |
Good parking at fishing lake to ENE (SE259779). Took lower track to be GOML-ed at Tanfield Lodge. Retraced steps and once out of sight of house, climbed NW steeply thru' wood to approach via fields. Avoiding both the Keeper's Cottage and Hall Farm, I picked up a good track at SE 2495 7730 which led all the way to the summit. Returned the same way but to avoid Tanfield Lodge access road, walked thru' woods on a rough track from SE 2512 7724 to SE 2546 7744, leaving the walk out on the access track to Hall Farm. A car slowed as it passed but did not stop - walked on the grass not the tarmac. | carole engel | 29/12/2018 |
Revisit for pics and to try JB's approach before the drought ends. From Hackfall carpark, down to river, didn't fancy JB's crossing point so went 100m downstream. Crossed at tiny cataract, upstream side, water barely knee deep. Landed on steep banking with freshly cut trees lying around. Steeply up wood, needs care on return as craggy in places. Out into fields past unusual earthworks, a deep sided square but on quite a slope. Summit one of two places beside fence. On return found hare in wire snare in wood, only saw it when it started screaming loudly as I passed by. Managed to free it and it hobbled away. Removed offending item. | Aye Jimmy | 12/07/2018 |
Easily waded the Ure in DROUGHT conditions. Crossed from SE 2379 7772 into the wood opposite, then E to emerge in the fields 400m NNE of the summit. Max depth 80cm. No perceptible current. Riverbed not too slippy. Carpark at SE 230775 | jimbloomer | 29/06/2018 |
Magdalen Field from GR: SE 26165 78085 Mountain Biked the low level track through the woods next to the River Ure to SE 24109 77270 then easy walk to summit. Summit feature embedded rock at spot height SE 23776 77312 | ronaldo333 | 14/05/2018 |
Had a look from the W first, into Hackfall Wood. Can get to 150m of hill but River Ure is 50m wide and no crossing points! Hackfall (Woodland Trust) has nice woodland, old follies but the star of the show - a fountain - was out of action unfortunately (spurts forth to 30' or so every 15 minutes, but only lasts for 2 minutes). Drove round to NNE, verge parking near entrance to Aldburgh Hall. Into field to E of entrance, over padded bwf, metal gate then R and roughly along line of Black Robin Beck, or pasture land to avoid boggy areas. In view from farms at one point. Summit area has earthworks, too dark to appreciate though. | Aye Jimmy | 22/03/2018 |
