Vegetation makes it difficult to identify exact top on flattish summitBramley09/10/2014
wooded hill, summit has ferns and brackenAdrian28/09/2014
Today i climbed the Bramcote Hills and this was the 2nd after Burnt hill. I locked my bike next to the Bramcote park playground close to coventry lane and headed up on steep footpath joining Robin Hood way. I veered off where a tree had fallen over next to a fence and climbed up through the trees to the summit plateaux; an area of indistinguishable level-ish ground with birch oak, bracken and bramble hiding possible summit points. I meandered around this area to maximise my chances and descended the same way. Next stop Stapleford hillDazingdale16/11/2013
Avoiding low-flying cricket balls, I walked up past the walled gardens and onto the vague summit. Did a figure of 8 through the woods which took in all contenders for high point.DanHolme15/06/2013
