From Halwell, north then east then north into pasture. Summit appears to be a tumulus at 78392 53528. That is certainly the high point - it-just whether it is a more modern mound or a much older tumulus. My guess is the latter.clivevilla06/03/2023
From Halwell Cross. Helpfully the summit fields have permissive access positively encouraging a visit. Levelish hilltop with sheep eroded Bronze Age burial mound. Seems most likely the mound was built on the natural high point.RichardM06/04/2019
A local sign said that the land was publicly accessible due to bronze age burial mounds. We stood on top of one- heavily eroded by sheep- which appeared to be the HP ie higher than the location of the OS SH in the adjacent field to the east. Accessed from well maintained byway.Denise 06/04/2019
