A circuitous route across the huge field following tractor tracks and harvested section. Summit area has knoll of beech and yew and covered reservoir, so natural HP unclear. parked at Church carpark Ebbesbourne Wake Village ( on May hill, above the church). | Denise | 26/07/2021 |
From Ebbesbourne Wake, a frustrating maze of a route to make use of the areas where the barley had been harvested. Summit copse of young beech and yew around embanked water tank. Thundery showers. | RichardM | 26/07/2021 |

Wiltshire blanketed under glistening snow on a beautiful sunny morning.Minor roads sheet ice so tightened my boots and made a 3 and half hour circular walk through soft powdery snow from the A30 way to the north to reach this beautiful tranquil valley with its 3 small adjacent Tumps. Dazzling snow on upper field ( piste) here. Could have got a few telemarks in on descent? Lovely bell ringing from below on this glorious blue sky, white snow Sunday morning. | Chris Pearson | 03/02/2019 |
Did not make the top of Barrow Hill tried to walk this from the by-way on the east side it is too exposed with a lot of windows looking over from the farms. Better to do this from the west side | philhythe | 05/04/2018 |
From layby at top of road to the W. Field edges to summit, luckily the summit field had been harvested. | Chris Peart | 17/08/2015 |
