Parked in a nearby layby to the south and then walked up the lane with Molly to bag the summit before crossing the footbridge over the A30. Great views of Dartmoor to the west. | JohRvs | 06/08/2023 |
Solo. Cycled out from Exeter. Climbed gate on S side of pedestrian bridge and walked short distance to highest point | MickyRoss | 26/07/2023 |
Parked on the south side. Decided the middle of the footbridge would suffice. | ekm | 30/08/2021 |
Parking in layby just off main road. walk over footbridge just in case but decide indistinct HP is in field. Stolen by the A30-no longer an impressive hill. | Denise | 21/09/2020 |
Parking on the sharp bend by ROW. Over gate into the field then walked over the footbridge to west side just to be sure. | fosal29 | 21/01/2020 |
15.10. Ground on footpath either side of the footbridge across the cutting of the A30 dual carriageway, during 7km circular walk from ESCOT pk Beautiful days festival. | vegibagger | 15/08/2019 |
Not much to say about this one. | Dugswell2 | 26/03/2019 |
Parked in the lane a few m to the S. Not much to see! | DanMaisieBex | 22/03/2019 |
Last hill of 15 today. Pasture E side A30 would seem to have the HP. | jonglew | 21/02/2018 |
Summit apparently lost to the A30 cutting so I favour the footbridge midpoint :-). Failing that, bank at field edge E side of A30 seems a little higher than the path W side of A30 | RHW | 23/04/2017 |
Was hoping to make a first log of a hill but it seems Gordon has beaten me to it by 3 days | Mark Sims | 26/09/2016 |
