As others, parked at the No parking sign and a short walk to top | DaveGraham | 15/03/2024 |
Gate was open to assist bag. | lordtonult | 29/07/2023 |
Just about got the car off the road at a field gate to the E - the one with the 'No Parking in Front of These Gates' sign... it was only a 2 minute job to bag the top from there. As it happens the farmer came along and stopped for a chat, he was fine. Told me I needed to bag Carmichael Hill if I hadn't done it... I hadn't and I did it next! | jonglew | 13/02/2023 |
