    Parked on drive to Upper Cilgu Farm and went to trig point first and then traversed ridge to westernmost top. Interesting boggy bit tween the 2 tops.John

    Small cairn. I did the trig point, another hill nearby at 436m and the two official tops.clive

    Probably an optical illusion - this top appears to be higher than its twin.Antony

    Parked on the minor road to the south of the hill. Decided to go the quick way via Upper Cilgee farm. Owner /worker said yes after much 'this is not a footpath' and ended with 'just this once'. So up to the first topGary
