| As others, parked at corner to NW. | sclater | 16/01/2023 |
| From Hall Lane - space on the verge about 50m N of ROW. Visited summit and alternative highpoint. | PGCE | 22/09/2022 |
| Just about space for one car by bend at start of FP on Hall Lane. Followed FP uphill before heading SE across field to open gate into summit field. Cows headed NE as I went to top. | PeterD | 10/08/2022 |
| ascended from the NW where the PRoW enters the field, headed to the SW end as the part to the SW of the wall appeared to be the higher ground. I then went through (open) gate to the summit as described. The SW high point just to W of wall did seem to look higher. | JK | 15/01/2022 |
| Parked on Hall Lane about 25m E. of the crossroads at SJ 5496 6444 - E. along road, over stile & along RoW for about 100m - Over fence where barbed wire has been cut cut & headed up to the right of oak woodland to a field gate - Through gate (karabiner closure) & a short climb NE to obvious summit. (S) | gerrybowes | 24/11/2020 |
| Parking very difficult due to narrowness of the roads, however, I found a good pull-in on Hall Lane, just south east of the summit. Back to the road where a gate gives access to pasture. Direct line across into trees and follow them until level with the summit. Under fence to summit. | moorsman | 06/03/2020 |
| Cycled from South View E.C. Lifted bike over gate from A49 to SE. Ambled up to both grassy high points watched by several dis-interested cows. | Minto | 24/10/2019 |
| Ran up from fp on Hall late on a cold, misty and drizzly evening. Scattered a herd of bullocks, over gate ran thru pasture thru wooded slope to a pastoral summit. Then ran back down with Mart | John Eley | 07/06/2019 |
| 1/7 With Nwormgage. First on a Chumping and Wirrumping expedition tidying up Cheshire and Wirral area. Nice first top, walk across big open field. Decent-ish views | tumpawumpa | 03/01/2019 |
| Nice little jaunt across open field. No drama. Won't be doing it again. With tumpawumpa. | nwormgage | 03/01/2019 |
| Parked to the NNE near start of footpath then relatively direct route through fields to summit. | Dugswell2 | 29/09/2018 |
| Roadside verge parking on Hall Lane near 92m spot height. Took a direct line to hill top. | jonglew | 18/02/2018 |
| Parked on verge at bend to W of the ramshackle Utkinton Hall. Started at fp, through deep mud and over bwf and across field. Up into pleasant woodland and over another bwf into pasture and summit. | Campbell Singer | 30/12/2017 |
| Parked at road junction at spot height 92m. Through gate on Hall Lane, followed hedge on left into woods then track to gate close to summit. Summit to SW could be tumulus or fortification. Solo. Great day after poor week. | bolton | 24/11/2017 |
| From near Hill House, parked in wife entrance to gate and bridleway and straight across main road is a gate into field. Diagonally half left to another gate and into summit field. Decent views. From here though the ground in the next field looked higher. Said hi to the cows and enjoyed the superior view. The top may have had a tumulus at some point.theres a definite hollow anyway. | stig_nest | 23/07/2017 |

| 1st Hill of 6 today on a route from Tarporley to Helsby (Nottingham to Derby then Crewe by train, bus to Tarporley). Walked up Utkinton Road over the A49 and close to jct with minor road I headed over a gate and walked up to the South summit (knoll next to fence) before following the fenceline around to climb a gate into the large field and continuing on to the 2nd summit (both summits gave the same reading. Fantastic feeling of space and good views to the other sandstone hills. Climbed over fence to descend through woods to skirt pool and continued to join muddy footpath that leads to Hall Lane past Utkinton Hall. | Dazingdale | 04/03/2017 |
| From now, 2 pasture summits. Forgot to take hand level so none the wiser | RHW | 19/02/2017 |
| Parked: SJ 55277 64671 (muddy space for one car). Very foggy and still dark, it took two attempts to locate the summit. | David Evans | 07/01/2017 |
| Also as RobertP, entry into field at start of f/p extremely muddy, then behind hedge line and up through wood. Pasture or further SSW near a few trees may be top. | Aye Jimmy | 10/01/2016 |
| From Utkinton Hall, footpath then large field. | ngthack | 16/12/2015 |
| As Robert P. Top is either 55431 64219 or 55332 64087 which looks similar height. Did both in case it is surveyed. | clivevilla | 02/12/2015 |
| Noticed that I visited the trig pillar a km east with Jamie couple of years back before any knowledge of tumptiness temptation had befuddled and hit my brain!! Across grassy field and over another gate into the next grassy field. | vegibagger | 21/09/2015 |
| Parked close to Utkinton Hall, W along rd to start of footpath across large field. Headed up to edge of wood and gate into summit field. | RobertP | 01/02/2015 |
