Walked near this one a few times but have always put it off as it looked tricky, actually it was a breeze and just off the edge of the woodland. | greboicus | 25/02/2023 |

Spring hill's moist summit proved mildly facile. Horses - force Dogger bank - appeared jovial. Simple horsey track up from Springhill farm. With nwormgage. | tumpawumpa | 13/08/2017 |
Have been ferried past said tump many times, never blown away by it, such is its inoccuousness. A pleasant enough place to be. Avec tumpawumpa. | nwormgage | 13/08/2017 |

From SJ 20511 35458. First to Pant Hill via lane, bridlewaay and footpath then on to Spring Hill via the woods above Bryn. Useful permitted (Ty Gofal) path from the top, beside the fence, back to the lane at SJ 20556 35148. | summitsup | 13/10/2015 |

Real name 'Gwastad Mawr'. Parked at Pont y Meibion on narrow lane off B4500 in Ceiriog Valley. There is room for one car neatly tucked in before the bridge by field gate at SJ 19552 35134. Took riverside path downstream for about 100m, then RoW on track which winds up escarpment to Caedicws Farm (many gates!). Then up to lane and south to Spring Hill Farm (has a bunkhouse), and RoW north by paddock to forest edge - one easy electric fence to tackle to get to summit boulder. To descend, headed back to lane, and after survey of summit and bwlch of Pen y Gwely, took UC Way down past Cwmclyd back to car. With MP on an evening walk/survey. | Man of Kernow1 | 29/04/2015 |
