Follow the main path past the information board and you will come to a step path on the left. After a while you reach the main path over the hill, the area is broad and lacks a definite summit .Had a good walk around in the area and got loads of various readings area owned by woodland trust who encourages and promotes access which makes it a enjoyable experience.hodder30/08/2023

Up the track from the SE. I had been hesitant about this one not thinking there is public access but there is and it is a fine wood to boot especially in the Springtime. An excellent stroll up from the main road.Father Ted09/04/2017
