| As others, parked in entrance to NNW (and got told off on my return). Along pavement and into wood. Reached summit cairn. | PGCE | 16/04/2024 |
| As others, parked to side of track to NNW - Footpath alongside road for about 175m, entered wood at RoW & then made way to summit GR which lies on banking directly above road. | matty1971b | 23/08/2023 |
| Brambles were not too bad, Devonians will laugh at them. A bit of wandering about required though due to the lack of obvious high point. | fasgadh | 30/05/2023 |
| Bus to Walton, across fields. Onward to Rabbit Ings. | Moorponder | 25/08/2022 |
| As others, parked to side of track to NNW - Footpath alongside road for about 175m, entered wood at RoW & then made way to summit GR which lies on banking directly above road. Nice show of bluebells, but plenty of bramble. | gerrybowes | 08/05/2022 |
| Carbagging on a wet Saturday before football at Ossett United | Longwojo | 03/10/2020 |
| Nice wood but didn't fancy hacking through brambles so we found an easyish way up the bank from the road and landed straight on the summit cairn. Didn't fancy tumbling down the bank onto the busy road so hacked back through the brambles anyway. | Wycombe Wanderer | 17/05/2020 |

| Parked to the NW, snug into track entrance SE347155. Unsure of true high point. | David Evans | 14/10/2019 |
| A very busy road with nowhere to park. It's even scary trying to cross the road! I parked by the railway viaduct to the southeast and walked up the hill on good pavements. High point in woods with cairn just near the road. | Dangerous Dave | 31/12/2018 |
| 4 of 4 today on 35 mile bike ride starting on ashdene drive in crofton. Red hill, kings mead, Upton beacon, Chevet park | The-Z-Man | 24/12/2017 |
| Parked in wide track entrance to NW @ SE347155 | carole engel | 21/12/2017 |
| Got the bus from Dewsbury after doing Headfield Hill, into Wakefield and then out to Walton and walked over fields to summit, on east side of road in wood, next to public footpath, then walked back to catch bus from Walton. I hope the entry that said drive by doesn't think that counts. There has to be some physical effort involved, surely. | IanHHill | 22/11/2017 |
| Parking was difficult but I used the path on the straight bit of road to the north of the hp. Hp appears to be in wood to the east although not sure what is hidden by the stone wall to the west. | Campbell Singer | 02/11/2017 |

| As others a quick foray into the woods on FP and bank near road. | PeterD | 26/10/2016 |
| 5th and final hill of today. Started at Dodworth station and climbed Dodworth hill, Pool Hill, Hoyland hill and Woolley edge. Used Track on disused railway then linking path to Chevet road. Climbed over wall to explore high point in woodland slither and then over again and road to explore onto Eastern side of woodland which Was of a Very similar height. Long Walk in and then train back from Sandal & Askrigg | Dazingdale | 08/10/2016 |
| Staggeringly unsatisfying these non hills. I satisfied myself with just a wander along the road, into the easten wood and top three or four mounds on the southern edge of the woods. Hyper diligence gold stars must go to RHW for his efforts at exploring other high bits. | vegibagger | 23/08/2016 |
| a drive by after a very rainy walk around Haw Park and Wintersett Res. with a drink in the Angler's Retreat. | joseph mitchell | 03/08/2016 |
| Wakefield tump day under dark skies and sometimes drizzle.Mix of town and country.Parked at farm track N.Into wood on f/p and found way to what I thought was highest point by(relatively)bramble-free route.Didn't find cairn,but not surprising considering brambles and fallen leaves.With Oscar. | catman | 29/10/2015 |
| With Catman. | oscarrosie | 29/10/2015 |
| Busy road. Fpath into woods for short weave around brambles to add a stick to small cairn above road edge built by Aye Jimmy. | Chris Pearson | 13/08/2015 |
| Bank in the trees accessed via footpath. | Dugswell2 | 02/05/2015 |
| As Aye Jimmy. Your little cairn is still there. I nurtured it by adding a stone. It's the biggest cairn of all the 6 Barnsley Tumps I've visited today. | ngthack | 24/03/2015 |
| 3rd visit for 3rd (and largest) 90m contour, from S followed field/woodland edge then into wood, fairly hummocky with a few candidates visited. Bank between trees seemed highest (SE 34495 15163). My GR for summit W side of road was SE 34851 15285, in tree belt, although field edge (SE 3489 1522) may be as high. Abney from summit W of road could be useful; highest point in woodland is then 1-2m higher than visible field edge. | RHW | 02/11/2014 |
| Called back for the west summit: a drive-in but having rechecked map, still not quite the summit. | RHW | 17/08/2014 |
| 10k mapping shows small contour rings immediately W and E of the main road. The one to E is easy, the one to the W is more tricky but doable. However the larger and presumably higher contour is further W in the grounds of the house at c. SE 3447 1514. I ran out of time and didn't get to investigate the latter so not quite a tick as yet | RHW | 15/08/2014 |
| Approached from N via busy B6132. Parked at entrance to farm track 150m S from summit as previous logger, walked back along road to bend. Peered over wall to SW but decided highest point was other side of road to NE on banking at edge of wood; small cairn left. Either climb banking or enter wood and undergrowth at public f/p not far away. | Aye Jimmy | 02/08/2014 |
| No parking available on the adjacent road. The actual summit is shielded from the road by a high and completely unclimbable estate stone wall. The only access is to pull into the track about 150m south and make a dash along the inside of the wall to the summit. Not really worth it, better to regard the summit of the road as the top,. | moorsman | 16/08/2013 |
