At night on way to lead a walk.Wheelsy24/02/2024
Levelish summit with disturbed ground has fenced reservoir with perimeter track. High point a vague earthy rise in unfriendly group of Hawthorns.RichardM16/09/2023
Dark. Lincolnshire Tumps compleat.Wycombe Wanderer20/09/2022
Parked by mast and reservoir. Walked around reservoir perimeter and over mound.PGCE07/12/2020
Revisited for the new eastern highpoint as I was in the area. Somehow has the feel of a low spoil mound to me; has been planted with trees a decade or two ago. May be hard to prove either way. If 0.8m differential then the natural HP is probably here anyway.RHW24/05/2020

1 of 5 on 59.5 mile bike ride including Sheffield’s hill, walks end hill, saxby wold, patchetts cliff and ash holtThe-Z-Man05/01/2019
All flatish round here so not easy to determine a definitve HP by eye. Walked round perimiter of the covered resr compound. Ground to the E, planted as a small copse, seemed to be raised, definitely appeared to be higher than ground in the compound.... as borne out by a change in the summit to this location in May 2020.jonglew26/09/2018
On route to North Lincs top, parked in gateway opposite and crossed the road.mart079710/02/2017
3rd hill of the day and my penultimate North Lincs top on an outing with Lesley and my mum after visiting Patchett's Cliff and Ash Holt, driving through East side of Scunthorpe then parking on right hand side of road to explore the signs but then investigated ground to the SE following fenceline past abandoned and derelict building, one side has Space Invaders Mural on it to then walk around NE edge of mast compound- not far away was another derelict property in a sunken area and it was near here that I got my highest reading. Walked back in cereal field then back to the car. Next..Coffee in South Ferriby followed by Saxby Wold.Dazingdale14/01/2017
Easy win.Ramblingpaul04/11/2016
By sign on bend.PeterD20/06/2016
HP seemed to be next to an old bunker about 100 mts from road on north side of compound.Campbell Singer21/04/2016
Parked in small layby almost directly opposite summit. They don't come much easier - beware of traffic!David Gradwell14/02/2016
didn't really need to get out of the car for this one but I parked up by the mast and walked to the bend in the road.steven ruffles10/02/2016
With Evan, Eire & Coel. Alfie stayed in the van.Dangerous Dave10/01/2016
Roadside or in cereal field to west.Adrian08/08/2015
Back of E verge by northern bend sign. Easy parking by resr entrance.RHW07/12/2014
saturday, on leisurely drive down to Horncastlevegibagger06/09/2014
Parked in the lay by and walked to the bend signs. Seems to be highest point.bolieve30/08/2014
Seems to be at curve in road next to chevron signs.Aye Jimmy14/08/2014
Parked near mast and walked back to the two bend signs.Dugswell202/08/2014
Parked in layby near to the bend, short walk to the highest looking point by the bend signs.muzza222/03/2014
Very difficult to identify actual highest point due to artificial mounds surrounding mast. The mast itself however, doesn't appear to be atop the highest natural land. Wherever you stand the adjacent ground looks even higher! Decided on the bend in the road, but open to debate.moorsman08/11/2013
Top probably just off main road by bend signs although covered other likely spots including new top.Bramley16/08/2013
along road, doesn't justify a date- bus and car journeys to Scunthorpe when I lived in Hull and John Lowther in Barton: 1984-1992pwheelerblank
