| 3/10 Parked by the bench at SD 246 811, then followed up wall, crossing at gate, to Crag Height. From there cut across the moor to Shooting House Hill. Over the wall at the stile, and down past the tip to the gate, and up High Moor with its trailer mounted aerials. Retraced route to the gate, then contoured round to the wall coming down from Shooting House Hill (tricky crossing). Followed RoW down to the moorland road. Crossed straight over and up quad bike track to gate in field boundary, from where sheep trods took me to the trig on Bank House Moor. then good track back to the minor road below the bench. Thick mist most of the way. 8.5km with 330m ascent in 2 hours 20 minutes. | silveracorn_alan | 18/02/2023 |

| Roadside verge parking (SD 2685 8186). Shooting House Hill first, then a near enough direct route across to here. Picked up a mapped farm track for the return. | jonglew | 12/12/2018 |
| 10th tump of 12 on a 33.6km circular route from Ulverston, climbing Flan hill, Town end bank, High Pastures, Lad's Head, Lowick Beacon, Kirkby Moor, Crag Height and Shooting House Hill continuing Sse to the disused tip and the track that continues beyond, then directly to the summit, stepping in and out of the unusual Comms trailer at the top. I also explored the land NW of this as it is at a similar height before continuing Sw onto a minor lane West of Harlock then Nw towards Bank House Moor.... | Dazingdale | 01/04/2018 |
| IMPORTANT ADVICE, If you are topping this hill along with Shooting House Hill then it is advisable to visit the other one first. The reason is that there is no right of way to this summit. If you are challenged by the farmer (as I was), later his son (as I was) and then his wife (as I was) you can just say that you got lost on the open access as you couldn't cross the wall by Shooting House Hill. You finished up on this hill because that is where the gates gave access. They were all quite happy with my explanation and directed me on their private track back to my car! You cannot do this if you do High Moor first! | moorsman | 18/08/2016 |
