Biked from home (Kew) through Croydon. Great view towards Sout East into Kent. Time used 6 hours return. Nice and warm summer evening but it got 0:30 past midnight before I was home.Nils

I think this grid ref must be wrong as it's in Kent. However, if you walk 100 yards up the main road you reach the London border. Not an inspiring spot though.Giles

This was once a Palmerston Fort and is now all houses. Got as close as I could without upsetting people or horses! How can this also be a Kent top?Nick

It's somewhere on the left hand side of the road about 200 metres past the pub (which I don't recommend visiting).Richard

Maybe the worst county top of the lot - a squeeze down the edge of a busy and pathless A-road to reach an indeterminate point near an eponymous house. The Kent top is nearby. A local bizarrely thought we were car valets and asked us to wash his car!wheresthepath
