Up to ridge on partially overgrown path beginning opposite The Inn.Pleasant stroll along the ridge,then back down North end and back along the road.With Catman.oscarrosie27/08/2015
Small parking area at the road junction with the Laskill road. A good footpath is signposted almost opposite the pub which leads directly to the summit. If taking in Easterside as well start at the northern end as there is a path UP Easterside from the south but not from the north.moorsman08/10/2014
