With Judy: Walked up track fron NEGordonAdshead25/05/2021
5th tump of a 7 tump loop from Madeley to Ironbridge, climbing Madeley hill, Sutton hill, Pump hill and Nordley Common. I managed to find the fp that had evaded me and followed this out the minor lane then the steep climb up onto Jack Mytton Way. I crossed over a field to reach the 234m spot next to the gate then back onto the road to take a forest track to the Water tank; a more obvious top. Continuing for Ash Coppice hill....Dazingdale14/03/2020
Visited both 234m spot heights. Only the ground with the water tank displays any sort of minor elevation relative to surroundings.milimana13/05/2019
Parked at road junction then through woods past several concrete water tanks.cjo21/12/2018

As for clivevillaarranc17/07/2016
As previous logs. The fence warning rifles and shotguns being used was lying face down so obviously went unseen... summit about as yawnsome as expected.stig_nest23/06/2016
Didn't see the sign saying dont come in. Though to be fair having visited the top there's very little worth visiting in here. with Nest.Laura.W23/06/2016
Topped by circular concrete water tank with convenient ladder to gain top. In unfenced private shooting woodland. The field/forest boundary on the E side of the road is of similar height.RichardM13/04/2016
Parked at high point of road and went straight into the wood along the track. The water tank and summit are slightly concealed on the left.clivevilla23/03/2016
