Approached along field edge from NNW via a handy gate. I agree with Smudge's summit position, although I notice the Landranger has a 168m spot height in the field.Chris Peart19/03/2015
Entered field on footpath to NE and then headed across a young legume crop. Thick morning mist so couldn't see much but lots of wildlife - lapwings displaying, skylarks singing and a brown hare. I thought the top was possibly in the next field with a brassica crop growing but hard to be sure.Herbert Anchovy18/03/2015
First, and most unremarkable, on a round of 4 hills from Stanton Prior. Edge of arable field, HP not obvious due to flatish top. Approached along field boundary from E; leaving the hill NNW to minor road.jonglew30/12/2014
