Parked at bend in road to NE. Don't follow ROW but head straight into summit field to avoid fence climbing. Strange crop in field - brittle stems and blackened seed pods: looked too uniform to be the results of a fire. Drizzly August afternoon, 13C. 0.4 miles, 10m climb, 10 mins. | Mark Jackson | 29/08/2023 |

2nd hill of 10 with my girlfriend (driver) visiting Naseby Hill then using minor road through Cold Ashby to park up beside Jurassic Way path on bend. 
I entered field and followed edge parallel with the Jurassic way then headed direct for the vague summit. I marked two waypoints @ 219m (SP 63742 76888 & SP 63743 76888) and SP 63759 76888 @ 223m before heading for the Mast and through the gap in the hedge then across the next field, following the edge of the hedge to emerge on the road and then back to the car. Next hill: Ashby Grange Hill.... | Dazingdale | 30/10/2017 |

As CS used b/way signed Elkington and Jurassic Way then banking, over bwf into crop field. Then tractor lines where possible. Vague flat summit. | Aye Jimmy | 04/08/2017 |
Down to the west is a chalybeate spring (named on map) where iron in the spring water stains everything orange. Wandered down fp then out into field hp. Then to trig further down road then on way to Naseby Battlefield sites-fascinating info boards and maps -and a bonus new TuMP I had spotted with its summit by the Obelisk. | Chris Pearson | 23/03/2017 |
Followed field edge and then short walk into middle. Bagged after visiting the trig point further down the road - where the first measurements for the retriangulation of GB were taken in 1936. | Wheelsy | 22/01/2017 |
Short detour from A14 on way back from visitng parents in Kettering. Parked in layby at NE field corner, walked up edge of field then across top. Frosty morning. | Hippo | 22/01/2017 |
Footpath to begin then circle round a ploughed field | Colin Crawford | 08/01/2017 |
The number of times that I have cycled, walked and run over this hill must number four figures. However this has been the only time that I have gone to the highest point - helped by a cold frosty morning keeping the recently sown ground hard. | JohnW | 29/12/2016 |
