From road / track to south east. Through gate into paddock and up to the lovely wooded summit. Afterwards I found the nearby buried block trig point (my first) thanks to RHW's comments.Fife Walking06/01/2024

2nd hill of 8. From the SE, got a row from a farmer - even though no livestock in any of the fields. He said we should have asked for permission.The Fife Flyer02/04/2021
SE summit in copse, W summit pasture with trig block conveniently exposed, gorsy outcrop at 1520611971 N of track jct has largest 240co and gets my vote. NB there's a 240m spot E of that jct in plantation at 1526011883, plus the far NE summit in paddock mentioned by others. Rainy bank holiday Sunday. This p89 visited the day after I completed the subhumpsRHW26/05/2019

A straightforward walk up the track to Letham House, over a gate and into the paddock. All three summit bumps covered.summitter19/11/2017
Parked on road to south, across dip then up to the various summitsColin Crawford15/11/2017
At the sharp bend at the entrance to Letham farm met the farmer in his Landie and he suggested I drive up the road and park before the drive to the house. He offered warnings about a bull, calving cows, and electric fences but none of these caused me a problem. I agree with richtea's assessment, his highest point seems to be 5m above everything else.NormanW06/09/2017
P at entrance to Old Fargie. Visited three contenders.chrisbien19/03/2017
Leisurely evening ascent from Balvaird Castle car park with Lindsay, Rodd and Deirdre. Visited all three contenders mentioned by richtea.Janet M04/08/2016
Drove up and parked at Letham Farm - but that only works if you have friends stabling horses there. Walked across pasture to trees at summit from gate at corner in track.Minto03/10/2015
Very pleasant summit, via track from east. Into field through open gate, out over large overgrown stile further north.alda05/02/2015
Parked on track going to Letham. This hill is now a paddock.Play2End09/01/2015
