Took in high point as part of a circular 8 mile circuit from Newnham-on-Severn. Have been to the the view point before but this was my first time at actual highest point. Enjoyed listening to the ravens overhead!Gerry the Ranger17/07/2020
Uphill cycle on track from Soudly ponds carpark via view point ( worth visiting, Severn View) to indistinct summit near disused water tank in young saplings. Accessed on foot by small informal path from track.Denise 29/05/2020
Path from the N/S forest track reaches the summit area with open topped shallow water tank and scrub covered mounds and hollows. No view. Thrashed around but found nothing more convincing than the earth bank on W side of the tank.RichardM29/05/2020
Steep path straight up to summit ridge from Soudley Ponds car park. Walked the full length of the brambly ridge from N to S, most likely summit at N end.Tony J17/03/2019
Parked as near to the end of the road to the north as I could at 67095 12226. Wide track to within about 100m of top. Could here boar activity. Top is in an area with new trees in it.clivevilla04/12/2018
