More Chilternesque woodland. I hadn't imagined this part of Yorkshire to be so pleasant. | Wycombe Wanderer | 19/05/2020 |
Parked at end of Boyd Road, as others. Base of large tree seems to be the HP. | jonglew | 11/04/2019 |

From Boyd Road with an obligatory wander around the woods. | vegibagger | 04/01/2019 |
Cycle from Sheffield. Easy visit in the rain having stopped for lunch beside the impressively large Waterloo 'bottle' kiln just to the SE. A gloomy grey damp day. | RichardM | 22/11/2018 |
3/8 on 39.7 mile bike ride starting on Whaley road in barugh green. Including monk bretton, lees hill, newhill, hoober stand, potter holes, hoyland lowe, champany hill and dodworth hill | The-Z-Man | 01/02/2018 |
Very quick bag. Nice area. | Live | 30/01/2018 |
Walked from Keppel's Column. Fields clay and incredibly muddy. Top is on edge of housing estate but a much nicer knoll just inside the Wood would make a better summit if it were 3m higher. Walked part way then caught bus to Swinton station for train home. | IanHHill | 30/12/2017 |
Short walk from car ! | Ramblingpaul | 24/10/2017 |
Easy bag from the road end. It's finding Boyd Road that's the fun if you're not local! | moorsman | 09/05/2017 |
The tree at end of the road then a brief wander around the woods | RobertP | 22/01/2017 |
Someone unloading a car right next to the tree so had a walk round the wood too in an attempt to look normal! | the_adam | 19/11/2016 |
Similar to Heath Mount - Southend. | arranc | 30/08/2016 |
Got some strange looks from local residents in Boyd Road as I parked up walked to high point, satisfied myself it was the HP and returned to my car. Nice Tree. | PeterD | 21/06/2016 |
5th hill of 6 today on a challenging 20+ mile walk from Sheffield to Conisbrough sstation with Lexi Rue my partner's Labradoodle. We climbed Parkwood Springs, Wincobank, Keppel's column, and Hoober's hill before taking a series of foor footpaths and minor lanes to lead to footpath climbing through the woods, at the top we took the footpath curving round leading to Boyd road and the summit right next to the Horse Chestnut tree. | Dazingdale | 12/04/2016 |
From Boyd Road. Could qualify as one of the easiest TuMPs. | Campbell Singer | 25/03/2016 |
Parked up in Boyd Road and had a nice walk around the woods. With Eire, Evan, Sail, Danu, Coel & Alfie. | Dangerous Dave | 20/03/2016 |
Large Horse Chestnut free of leaf miner attack, thankfully. Plenty of conkers on it. | ngthack | 07/10/2015 |
On the edge of Swinton which is known for being the site of the former Rockingham Pottery, a world-renowned manufacturer of porcelain. | Chris Pearson | 13/08/2015 |
A round walk from Meadowhall interchange - Canklow, New Hill, Hoober and Keppel (revisit). The large tree is distinctive ! | Moorponder | 24/07/2015 |
Very quick bag. Parked next to the tree. | bolieve | 06/04/2015 |
Parked in Newhill to the north and walked into Wath Wood where the exit onto Boyd Road beside Horse Chestnut tree is the high point with Martin Richardson. | Dugswell2 | 22/11/2014 |
Chestnut tree is probably a P30 on its own. With dgswll2. | Martin R | 22/11/2014 |
Horse chestnut gets my vote. Fence corner 40m to N is lower than houses which are lower than chestnut. Completes the Rotherham Tumps list for me. | RHW | 15/08/2014 |
Far end of Boyd Rd (off Flintway) near gate into Wath Wood, next to huge horse chestnut tree. | Aye Jimmy | 30/07/2014 |
