With Judy: Walked up track fron NE | GordonAdshead | 25/05/2021 |
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.... | Dazingdale | 14/03/2020 |
Visited both 234m spot heights. Only the ground with the water tank displays any sort of minor elevation relative to surroundings. | milimana | 13/05/2019 |
Parked at road junction then through woods past several concrete water tanks. | cjo | 21/12/2018 |
Parked on the track to the east of the hp. Snowy woodland. Very pretty. | Campbell Singer | 15/12/2017 |
Track from NE. Everything looked flat until slightly raised spot with water tank came into view. Couldn't find anything that looked higher. | Aye Jimmy | 04/09/2017 |
From road to NE. Along track to water tank and HP. | PeterD | 18/04/2017 |
Did both summits. | Adrian | 22/01/2017 |
A short walk in the woods to the water tank and t0 see two foxes playing unaware they were being watched with Alex and Smudge. | Dugswell2 | 15/01/2017 |
Entertaining view of foxes playing from on top of the water tower. | Alex C | 15/01/2017 |
Carbagging with Dugswell & AC. As per clivevilla except no vegetation present to conceal the slightly raised reservoir. | Smudge | 15/01/2017 |
Walked from Pump Hill. Obvious track from the lane to water tank. All quiet today. | sooztops | 10/10/2016 |
Parked in layby just off main road to make a bit of a walk of it. No signs or shooting, ladder still in place :-) | heavyhorses | 31/07/2016 |
As for clivevilla | arranc | 17/07/2016 |
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_nest | 23/06/2016 |
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.W | 23/06/2016 |
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. | RichardM | 13/04/2016 |
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. | clivevilla | 23/03/2016 |
SW of road by water tank (taken to be at natural HP); NE of road by gate (or edge of wood to NW) | RHW | 15/03/2015 |
En route from SO688974 to Much Wenlock. Visited both 234m spot heights - the listed one by the reservoir/tank (SO654984) under threat of being shot(!) and the other just inside forbidden territory (SO658984). | summitsup | 20/06/2014 |
