| Parked in a wee spot along the road to Easter Newburn. A track leads over a gate at Pt.167 and around a house & garden, through grazed fields towards a phone mast. Before the final section a stile goes over a wall and allows access to the mounded summit. | summitter | 24/08/2023 |

| Parked on verge by caravan site entrance at sharp bend. Gate into field, signpost to Flagstaff Hill, and follow track round back of house and up the hill. Top is big mound, NOT in trees as 1:25K map suggests. | Minto | 26/09/2015 |
| Parked at Easter Newburn and walked across the fields to a fabulous stile. Perhaps the best in Fife. The top looks man made,perhaps a chambered cairn? | Play2End | 26/05/2015 |
