I had to make a great effort to stop and walk around a bit. Bagging some hills gets a little absurd. | Minto | 04/07/2023 |
Parked in Church Knap for the short walk to the summit: N side of road just beyond bus stop. | PGCE | 17/10/2021 |
Roadside in western Weymouth. Nowt more to add | vegibagger | 08/08/2021 |

Thought i'd better get out of the car so parked in Courtauld Drive and walked back up the road. | fosal29 | 02/02/2020 |
Parked in Church Knap and visited GR given which is on the verge. By luck some men were working in the reservoir and the gates were open. I wandered in and the reservoir top rises slowly towards the far corner at 66309 77870. I made my way there before being told I should not be there. | clivevilla | 26/03/2019 |

Parked down a nearby road then walked up to the high point of the road. Looking inside the reservoir compound I thought the highest natural was lower here. | Sprog | 15/08/2017 |
Had driven over top twice this week but this time stopped to have a walk around road & grass area in front of new houses. Torpedoes were made at the foot of the hill from 1893 -1997 and tested in Portland Harbour, which being a Royal Navy base became a magnet for enemy attacks during both world wars. Today the harbour is home of the National Sailing Academy-a legacy of the 2012 Olympic Games when the sailing races were hosted here. | Chris Pearson | 03/04/2017 |
Road seemed higher, but also went to other potential spots. | PeterD | 30/06/2016 |
Grassy bank on W side of reservoir enclosure fence feels the natural high point, easy access from Church Knap road. Fine views S of Chesil Beach. Tomato red disc of setting sun. GPS's view was the B3156 N of reservoir 2m higher but I couldn't agree. | RichardM | 12/03/2016 |
Grassed area to W of reservoir gave 68m elevation; road gave 70m. | jonglew | 09/12/2015 |
Bagged with Alex and Smudge. | Dugswell2 | 27/03/2015 |
Grassed area just W of res. compound satisfied our investigations from the Dougmobile temporary abandoned on the narrow but busy road. | Smudge | 27/03/2015 |
As Moorsman. Top of hill has a covered reservoir. Highest ;point seems on road apart from that. High ground in the new estate but probably just waste from the construction of the site. Basically a drive past. | destaylor | 30/12/2014 |
Drive past while looking for the nearby campsite during a camping weekend with the family. | Herbert Anchovy | 22/08/2014 |
