5 of 13. From East Croydon station on the Overground line and using the rail service to Woodmansterne. | WAYNE ROWLETT | 05/08/2023 |
With Judy. Visiting a few minor London points on way to visit grandaughter. Parked to the East | GordonAdshead | 10/03/2022 |
Parked by the Woodman pub in Woodmansterne and walked down the road and across a couple of fields. Found the football pitch for Coulsdon Athletic and wondered why I bother! | Nick | 05/02/2022 |
Detour from London LOOP | lerritt | 10/12/2021 |
A cool early morning start but no traffic on the roads so shoot down the A3 to Colliers Wood and then down the Wandle Trail as a nice contrast. Reach the Top, and now only the last three highest L Borough Tops to do. | pclyndes | 04/06/2020 |
Ran to the London Borough top from Horley with some alarums and diversions | PhilipChaston | 27/10/2019 |
A pleasant walk from Woodmansterne station and a mosey around the very flat recreation ground (a commendable quality in a playing field; less so in a summit). The ground by the big three trimmed tree next to the kissing gate from the btiflewsy looked a likely high point. | Nick Down1 | 24/04/2019 |
From Woodmansterne station. | Mark Jackson | 19/01/2019 |
Combination of buses from Sanderstead Plantation whilst getting steadily colder! Wandered up the bridleway path alongside the playing fields - hard to tell where it crests. | jedthehumanoid | 03/01/2019 |
Parked at end of The Mount. Short walk. | Janko | 27/08/2018 |
Parked at end of The Mount and in through gate onto large playing field. Anywhere could be the hp. Nice area. | Campbell Singer | 05/08/2018 |
Walked from Belmont along the LOOP to Coulsdon. It was only a short deviation from the route to yet another unremarkable London top. | Sixtyplus | 09/01/2018 |
Parked at end of The Mount. Along ROW to 2nd stile into playing fields. On way back mound by the ROW seemed higher. | PeterD | 26/11/2017 |

Last of seven 'Down' tops this evening in gathering gloom. Parked at end of 'The Mount' and via an entrance to old lane and metal gate accessed the playing field. Popular dog walking spot, nice high hill but no views to speak of. | nordicstar | 21/05/2013 |

A new day, and only two tops today. A surprisingly warm and nice day. Lots of football players on the ground just to the north. Now downhill for quite a while towards Sanderstead plantation | NilsOS | 10/10/2010 |
Parked at end of The Mount. Glad people weren't playing football here or it could have been embarassing. Could be anywhere at S end of pitch. | wheresthepath | 21/02/2010 |
