1 of 5: After visiting my cousins in Ripon. Parked at the field gate to the north.ChrisR20/04/2022
Walked up from the little hamlet of Aldfield which made for a more satisfactory exploration. Took about 20 minutes. Much safer than the main road parking with Studley being so busy.nickywood119/08/2021
Only pull-in is at the start of the footpath opposite the houses. Make sure that you have no cars behind you as you approach this pull-in as they can be taken by surprise if you suddenly stop! Through the gate and straight to the top. Under 5 minutes returnmoorsman26/07/2020
Parked by gate and fp sign to the north, opposite house. Quick walk up grass to top. 5 minutes. Solo.Dangerous Dave17/12/2019
Made me question why I do this sort of thing. I concluded that it got me out of the house and brought me to the impressive Studley Park for the afternoon, somewhere I would not have visited otherwise.summitter15/12/2019

Parked to north at SE 26094 69853 adjacent to gateway which is also the start of public right of way. No actual path on ground but easy 90m stroll to high point in field directly south at SE 26093 69762. Ground 400m SW is lower (Abney)David Gradwell29/12/2015
Parked in Aldfield and went to both tops as separate walks. 26088 69759 certainly looks higher.clivevilla20/12/2015

Final of three P30s on a bus pass day walk to Ripon. Thorn so clip'd that non-existent.Martin R13/01/2015
From N, parked at gate on opposite side of road to Clip'd Thorn house. Public footpath sign takes you straight up the middle of the field to the summit. Another summit to the SW was reached from lane to Aldfield, parked near horse ranch, crawled through hedge from lane. Looked lower.Aye Jimmy08/04/2014
