3 police helicopters quartering the ground to the west - was there a major search underway? One of them came to inspect me as I plodded up the barren field picking up interesting looking smooth rocks, trying not to look like a fleeing vagabond (or a pebble thief). Turned out that across the road was their grass field heliport (formerly RAF Chetwynd) and they were just training. Livened things up a bit. | Chris Pearson | 27/02/2024 |

From SW via track through wood. Vast swathe of red campion along field edge and smell of new bracken in the spring sunshine. Didn't go right to trig, so as not to trample clover crop, but counting it. Telford & Wrekin compleat. | Wycombe Wanderer | 28/05/2022 |

Parked to SW by letter box. Alo g road, then field boundary to trig and summit. | PGCE | 24/09/2021 |
Parked to W, then took field boundary up to summit. Trig was hidden by tall ferns. No sign of black Landrovers. Pleasant views to N and W. About 38m ascent. | RoguePulsar | 27/06/2021 |
Brambly bank by trig on wooded knoll in centre of stubble field with good views. From Puleston road junction, parking by postbox. Black Landrover followed us and asked if we were lost but very friendly once we said we had visited trig. Apparently concerned re shooting and risk of us getting caught in cross fire? . | Denise | 02/01/2021 |
From road junction to the SW over field of snow dusted stubble to summit mound with scrub and trig pillar. Looks much like a large tumulus. Good views despite the arrival of a band of sleet. On departure our interception by a Land Rover prowling the field didn't feel likely to have been by chance but the owner was a cheerful character happy that we were just visiting the summit trig. | RichardM | 02/01/2021 |

2nd tump of 9 today, after Hob hill. I parked at small layby with tree trunks across gap into field. Walked over to field edge, avoiding crops and followed hedge up switching to the other side as an opportune gap presented itself. Nice copse at the top.My 1st Telford & Wrekin top. Back the same away. Onwards to Chetwynd Park.. | Dazingdale | 09/11/2019 |

Passed comms mast on way where woodpecker was hammering on the metal. Apparently it wasn't just daft.They do it to disturb insects inside and eat them when they emerge. | KC | 21/02/2018 |

Used open gate (non existent) to park in dry field. Crops now harvested so easy walk up over stubble. Small copse at top covered with head high bracken. Telford and the Wrekin completed. UA of contrasts. | Campbell Singer | 23/08/2017 |
Took Gordon Adshead's route through barley and then wheat. The summit island was covered in chest high bracken which was still wet with morning dew. | Herbert Anchovy | 04/07/2017 |
As for Dugswell2. | arranc | 21/01/2017 |
Parked near postbox, road and then field edges to trig and HP. | PeterD | 17/01/2017 |

Took lane E from S end of Puleston, then into wood above as soon as possible. Followed narrow curving wood round to end of heavily ploughed field. Along hedge and up to summit mound with trig. | Aye Jimmy | 03/04/2016 |
Parked near the end of the lane and followed it around. Trig is on a little island of his own in the field to the left. Took the boys. | Laura.W | 25/03/2016 |
