Bagged whilst walking the Hardy Way from Wimborne Minster to Cranborne. Badbury Rings, Chalbury Hill and Colehill. The pretty church was enhanced by observation of the ruddy faced vicar carrying his bicycle up the steps for Sunday service. He seemed a jolly chap. Also visited the reservoir.PhilipChaston25/06/2023
Delightful church with adjacent vegetated bank and covered reservoir. Hard to say where the HP is but great views from church, probably HP, on sunny autumnal day. Walked from Hinton Martell but could easily park by reservoir. Cut mark on corner of church. Destroyed trig.Denise 20/11/2022
Ground by the church is good contender for the high point and has great views S. Also visited top of covered reservoir.RichardM20/11/2022
Drove up to Chalbury in the evening, easy walk to the church at the top of the hill, had a lovely conversation with a local who works at the Church. A great and friendly hill to visit.DavidHiner13/09/2022
Parked in Witchampton, crossed main road and walked up gentle incline to the hilltop. Nice surrounding views of East Dorsetmatt98p30/08/2022
Sutton Holmes to Three Legged Cross. Apart from occasional views towards the New Forest, a rather mundane hill area. HPs @ chapel & reservoir both feature altered terrain.Smudge15/10/2021

Car park space for the church. Over gate to top of reservoir then i walked around the church which looked more natural.fosal2902/02/2020

Worth adding a visit to the adjacent old chapel and ALSO 1 km away to Horton Tower a 270 year old brick folly, once said to be the tallest non religious building in Britain. It looks rather like a brick version of a Saturn V rocket with its booster tanks.Has recently been repaired by vodaphone who have used it for attaching aerials to it, giving it a purpose at last. In July 2020 the Gaurdian published a night photo of Comet Neowise above the tower -a nice choice of foreground as it may have been built as an observatory / folly.Chris Pearson24/03/2019

Reservoir top.vegibagger20/01/2015
Not much to see here. Unsure exactly where the hill top is, probably on top of the covered reservoir (although maybe doesn't count being man-made), so not able to supply a GR. Covered reservoir extension has seen loss of the trig pillar that was here.jonglew13/02/2014
