Left our car parked in the track to Betsom Hill. Walked along the B233 until we'd crossed the county boundary on the otherside of the road. Took the field corner by the gate as the high point because it was safe to stand there.RowanP21/08/2022
Bagged along with Betsom's Hill. It's by the side of a very busy road. Beware of the A233.hillbagger9119/01/2022
Parked on Tatsfield Lane, Hawleys Corner and walked up the very busy road. The hp is on a very dangerous bend in the road on the east bank within the trees. Solo.Dangerous Dave06/01/2022
Did Greater London's county top on the same day as Kent and City of London. What a joke this county top was for just being on the side of a main road! And that is literally London's highest point...DavidHiner07/09/2021

Corydon and Bromley are of a different order of magnitude to the rest of the Boroughs. Croydon more than twice as high as 15 Borough tops and Bromley more than twice as high as all but 7. All 32 Tops cycled from Kentish Town in 18 runs, in 35 days. 975 km and 5985 m of ascent.pclyndes07/06/2020

Final London Borough Top. 246 bus stops pretty much at the summit.Mark Jackson02/03/2019
Betsom's Hill and Westerham Heights by No 246 bus (Bromley South or Hayes to Westerham service, every half hour). 'William Hall Coachworks' stop is ideally situated between the two summits.PGCE07/02/2019
