| Along road from SWT CP. Before reaching the Hall Teasses road I struck upwards through the woodland along a line of beech trees. A pheasant compound is quickly reached, the summit lying NE of this in a bed of woodland nettles. | summitter | 24/08/2023 |
| From SWT Fleecefaulds Meadows car park, sign about possible future winter closure still there. All three current/past tops visited, no cows or people anywhere. | Lindsay M | 31/10/2021 |

| Return visit for the new summit following the relocation. From Fleecefaulds car park up track for Hall Teases, then woodland path, off path to summit area. Summit not obvious. Plenty of nettles at this time of year. Spotted sign in car park re proposal to close it during winter months. | Fife Walking | 17/06/2021 |
| The summit is 50m into the woods and not at the field boundary as suggested by the 25K spot height. | jimbloomer | 20/05/2021 |
| 9th hill of 11. From the east, no fences which is a bonus. | The Fife Flyer | 20/03/2021 |
| With Carskerdo Hill, from Fleecefaulds Meadow. Up from road via Windygates, then across open field. | Fife Walking | 20/03/2020 |
| Parked at edge of Teassies entrance, then up through trees and coo filled fields to wander around various possible highpoints, one of which seemed to be in a private garden. 300th TuMP of 2019. | Thearlaichdubh | 23/10/2019 |
| From the Meadows car park, past the ruin and across a field of cows. Young woodland around the summits was very pheasanty, did not hang around. Lots of vegetation, but no difficulties. | fasgadh | 07/09/2019 |
| From Meadows CP about 300m north of start of Windygates track. Up the track past derelict cottage then right over a gate and across the empty field to another gate. | Topographer57 | 10/02/2018 |
| parked at entrance to windygates visited all 3 tops. | robertphillips | 18/01/2018 |
| Mini round of the three tops from Fleecefaulds Meadows car park. Saw neither people nor cows | Colin Crawford | 27/12/2017 |
| Difficulty finding a suitable parking place so left the car at 41110 07714 and walked up the road marked Teasses Estate past walled garden etc and then just before the big house diverted through wood into field, then to summit through nettles etc. | NormanW | 29/08/2017 |
| P as Minto. Up track to just past derelict house. Through gate into field and across to gate through hedge. First top is straight up line of hedge with the second the other side of a stone wall. | chrisbien | 19/11/2016 |
| Return visit to visit the other top of the most stressful Fife Tump. Parked in the Fleecefaulds Meadow car park - room for 2 cars - and a good place to start separate walks to both summits. Just S of track to Windygates climbed up through trees to pasture. Thankfully no cows today, so headed straight across field, out of sight of Winygates to the NE and the Teasses lodge to the SW, to a gate in the hedge near the electric power line pole. Easy wander up to summit through trees. If there were cows present, then staying out of their field and following fence around to the S might too close to the lodge to SW. | Minto | 17/04/2016 |
| Climbed north top, or old summit at NO405087. Parked on verge on long straight in wood. Straight up to pasture, Fence, then alongside ?pheasant pens? to summit in wood. Cows in pasture on route to main / new summit, so not bagged. | Minto | 26/09/2015 |
| Parked on the minor road and took the track towards Windygates. Through the field to a gate NO406081 where there is access into the plantation to tick the new top. Also did old top! | Play2End | 26/01/2015 |
