Parked in layby on A418, then down 'Private Road' to gap in hedgerow & up a small bank to the HP. Uninspiring! | DanMaisieBex | 19/09/2022 |
Standard approach without incident. Uninspiring apart from the prolific sweet blackberries in hedgerow. 3rd on cycle around the area on hot and sunny day. | RichardM | 08/09/2021 |
Rough pasture flatlands 'summit' | vegibagger | 25/08/2021 |
Parked in Hampton Court (Jeffries Road) in the village of Stone. Went left and then left again to quickly nip up the North bound track for aprox 50m. A tick but not a very interesting or rewarding one. | Gareth1886 | 15/05/2021 |
Parked just off roundabout in Jefferies Rd., then along 'Private Road'. Easy to access summit field by continuing on track for 50m NW of summit, then doubling back. Buckinghamshire completion. | PGCE | 17/01/2021 |
Bike and walks: Haddenham station - Burn Hill - Waddesdon Hill - Lodge Hill - Ashendon Hill - Dorton Hill - North Hill - Muswell Hill - Arncott Hill - Graven Hill - Bicester Village station. | Mark Jackson | 12/09/2020 |
Walked up to metal gate. HP 1-2m or so higher within high metal fenced area. Didn't fancy climbing high gate in full sight of houses behind for the sake of 1-2m for this, unexciting, summit. | maclrc | 09/05/2020 |
1st hill of 8 on a 36km traverse from Stone to Bicester. Train to Oxford then bus to Stone, walking back on Oxford road then up Private road, climbing bank and through to field, recording 116m in long grass and brambles @ SP 77868 12434 and 117m @ SP 77866 12435. I cut across Wsw to pass another 115m contour then headed through the Nursery woodland before following hedgeline and Midshires Way/Swan's way heading for Waddesdon Hill... | Dazingdale | 06/07/2019 |
Parked at Stone church and scaled the track to this top. | ChinnockC | 19/05/2019 |
Parked on grass left of pavement just past entrance to private road. | GordonAdshead | 15/02/2019 |
Parked just off roundabout in Jefferies Rd., then along 'Private Road' and entered field past metal gates as CP. Grass in field has been cropped. | Aye Jimmy | 09/09/2018 |
Wonderful oasis of wild grassland, home to myriad species of insects and flora. Which means it's probably earmarked for 'development'. | Wycombe Wanderer | 17/07/2018 |

Quick bag on return from walking to Waddesdon Hill and back. High point as previous comments. Grotty day, didn't linger. | Owen B | 03/02/2018 |
pwheeler says it all. Pretty grim. Parked on very busy main road. | Campbell Singer | 09/12/2017 |
scrappy summit in a spare half hour- a rubbish tump? | pwheeler | 25/08/2017 |
Walked NW along private track from main road in Stone then once past tall metal gates on right found a way to push through trees,and dead nettles (and live brambles) to reach higher rough pasture to right (NE) of track. These fields may well have seen Italian Prisoners of War working on them during WWII from the POW camp (one of many in Britain) based in tents at nearby Hartwell Dog Track. Under the Geneva Convention they were given the same food rations served to British service personnel (weekly meat, bacon, bread, margarine vegetables, cake, cheese, jam tea). | Chris Pearson | 02/10/2016 |
Rough pasture just off the private road. | PeterD | 31/03/2016 |
Rough pasture on NE side of private road is higher than the road by 1-2m. | jonglew | 10/03/2016 |
Short distance up the unmade road. | Swindon Bagger | 16/01/2016 |
Top hard to distinguish - an uninspiring hill | trimarc2 | 27/08/2015 |
Parked in in the layby on the main road. Stroll up the road. Flattish - summit could be anywhere. | destaylor | 20/10/2014 |
