Parked at Bouldnor view point and used coastal path (a view diversions due to landslip) past the disused battery and up to houses. Plenty of walkers about. Spoke with elderly gentleman outside large houses and discussed trig access and the movement of the pathBuck11/07/2023
Drove up Cranmore Ave, and parked where it changes to Sea View Rd. Access round the house via the latter road is not possible, so went E on the coastal path, turning N to the caravan graveyard. Here starts the bramble, steep clay slopes and resident-dodging fun begins. The trig is in full view of a rear garden with a chalet and caravan.Minto13/01/2023
Bus to the end of Cranmore Avenue. Easy walk up road, then track, in the dark. Small path past last bungalow leads into woodland and forks to trig and summit.PGCE02/12/2021
Ultra walk challenge with Helenchelec10/07/2021
Accessed from coastal path and then up private track by holiday homes, planning to ask permission, but no one in. HP is in woodland behind back garden of one, near but not at trig. Drizzle.Denise 15/08/2020

Trig point still there.andrew brown13/11/2017
TD, C & H.No access via The Heights. Obtained access to the cliff edge to east and landowner said there had been much landslip. No sign of T P, we would be interested to hear if it is still in situ.This Dog26/08/2017
First visited the trig 7/9/08. Returned to look at the highpoint which I take to be a narrow brambly neck of land projecting north, 16m nw of trig pillar.RHW27/02/2016
Around the lanes with Kathy & Cow.Play2End08/06/2015
Visited whilst bagging the trig. Summit is just beyond boundary of house 'The Heights', but access best through that garden, owner happy to oblige.jonglew10/05/2014
