| Tight parking possible close to the start of the footpath to the east (Town Street). A short walk to the impenetrable fencing around the reservoir. Either take the entrance path as the summit of peer through the fencing. | moorsman | 29/06/2022 |

| Although man made the highest point is the reservoir top and the gate is easily scaled. | clivevilla | 10/04/2018 |
| From minor rd to E. Fence tricky, but gate easy. Natural HP probably outwith the compound though. With Carole Engel. | jonglew | 28/12/2017 |

| Summit topped by covered reservoir secured by V mesh fencing. Most natural high point is at bend in fence on the N side, bend in fence on S side next to a cast iron 'City of Nottingham Water Dept.' sign the likes of which are no more is of similar height. Pleasent views from the common on the W side | RichardM | 22/11/2016 |

| on edge of town, top by bend of path/inside compound | Adrian | 28/09/2014 |
| The first hill of three inc Bramcote and Stapleford hill. I locked my bike up at the White Lion pub and proceeded up Toen strert accessing the public footpath that leads past the covered Reservoir. I walked through the woods (permissive access) and then through a gate that leads to some lovely scattered woodland inc mature swert chestnut and oak. Dense rhododendrons on the left lead to the reservoir perimeter fence. I returned to reservoir gate which was open and walked around to official drive. I found the drivewsy leading to the entrance with the strange Severn trent hut obvikusly housing a portal to another dimension. This gatd is easily climbed.... | Dazingdale | 16/11/2013 |
| Various natural points could be highest - the walk round the woods, which are the remains of the old hall, takes in a few - but I think the closest point to the summit is on the north side in a corner of the reservoir fence. Easily climbed fence, too... | DanHolme | 15/06/2013 |
