Only parking to E was on a narrow and VERY soft wet grass verge with a high risk of getting stuck. Wider, but equally soft and wet verge near Moneylaws Farm to the N. Leave until dry weather.Isbjorn26/12/2023
As Liz H and others.Nice hill.ARM20/08/2023

Parked on the verge near the track to the wood. Along the track, then along the forest edge and through an open gate, across the field to a 2nd gate, and to the summit. Good views.LizH10/10/2022

Last day of our week in Kirk Yetholm (highly recommended, lots of walkers staying). We nearly forgot about this Hump, confused again by going N to get into England!. Parked at space at the Barley Hill road summit (172 m). Massive farm vehicles being used but we got a friendly wave from the farmer as we waited for him to drive down the track we then walked up the same way as most others,e.g.Jonglew. Fine views, very pastoral N, Cheviots S. A whole week of fine weather with very clear views. With Pete.pwheeler16/09/2022
4/6 Parked on verge just above the cottage to the east. Followed GB's route up farm track, along N side of now harvested wood, along field edges and across sheep pasture to trig. No evidence of RoW in arable fields. 3.3km with 80m ascent in a round trip of less than 1 hour.silveracorn_alan11/05/2022
From cottage to East through various fields the one with the trig full of sheep with lambs.NormanW06/03/2022

From East just north of farm buildings. Just after pheasant shoot, along field edge, then wind-thrown forest. Over a couple of fields via gates to summit and trig.N.Morters28/12/2021

verge parking to the east, track to woods, fields to the top.robertphillips25/01/2020
Roadside verge parking (NT 8842 3455). Ignored the RoW, it goes straight across a field with young crop; took farm track then wide field margins.jonglew09/10/2019
With K from track end to E. At summit, farmer passed by in field to N on ATV and studiously ignored us.Ashley11/08/2019
Verge parking to the east just north of Barley Cottage (alt 169m), which has been renovated and is now occupied. Walked back along the road to the cottage and picked up the footpath as far as the trees. Although there is a waymark upon leaving the wood this leads straight through a wheatfield. Conveniently, the farmer had left the field edges crop free so I used these, following an irregular path into the field before the summit. Then a direct cut across. 3.25km return, 45 minutes.moorsman01/08/2019

With Jenx and Bryher, just after the 300+ horses of the Flodden ride out had passed. Up from the barn at Barley Hill. Tried to use FP but overgrown through woods so took a more direct line down sides of cornfield. Came back more direct in SE direction using the line horses had taken to join end of track that leads back to Barley Hill farm.nordicstar10/08/2017
The mass horse ride at the start made this memorable. And the golden barley fields.jenx10/08/2017
FP to SE does not exist. Use track further NE to gate at NT881350. Then west on fenced track to pasture. This field is occupied by 6 inquisitive but friendly horses. The small patch of woodland ahead was occupied by a herd of mad cows - 3 jumped the fence INTO the field I was in, the rest ran round thru' the wood to join the horses and await my return!carole engel18/06/2017
From track N of Barley cott. Up far side of wood. Two arable fields with a good 10 metre grass boundary and pedestrian gate.Eddie04/04/2017

As others from Barley Hill cottage. Much digging on small hill just to E of Moneylaws with JCB excavator, dumper trucks - perhaps a mast or reservoir being built?Aye Jimmy02/08/2016
