Parked on road (SJ 6669 0474) by tunnel bridge. Walked S on road ~230m, then wooden steps up the bank, these continue (unmapped) to a stile into pasture that has the high point. | jonglew | 12/10/2023 |

Parked on Darby Road and walked up Coach Road to steps. Left at top of first steps to second flight and up to summit field and obvious top. | Bramley | 20/07/2021 |
Parked to SE on Coach Road. Took direct route from the road, then via paths. Only discovered path with steps up to the stile on the way back. After some grotty uninspiring Telford tumps, this was a welcome relief with the sun setting behind the Wrekin and nice views across to Wales. About 50m ascent. | RoguePulsar | 09/07/2021 |

Domed grassy summit above woodland in a grey cold day with good views of the Wrekin, snowy fields and an ugly power station. Approached from woods to east on path. | Denise | 04/01/2021 |
Unintended minor epic but at least discovered a nice wooded ridge to the north. | Wycombe Wanderer | 28/07/2020 |
1st of 6 tumps on a linear walk fromm Ironbridge to Wellington. 1st stop the rustic Greenwood cafe then up the steps to the fence then over and across to the top. Nice and open. Easy descent via large oak to gate then fp out to main road for the long walk to Charlton hill. .. | Dazingdale | 15/03/2020 |
All exceedingly civilised, steps up through woods from SJ667,045 to summit field with stile. Pasture summit, good views. 
And again:-

parked to the North in Darby Road SJ66704 04416, then as Dugswell2. | David Evans | 27/01/2019 |
Steep steps through wood to pasture overlooking power station | cjo | 21/12/2018 |
Parked low down on Darby Road, then up the steps and then a second lot of steps led up to stile and the summit. Good views of Power station cooling towers won't last as due to be demolished shortly. | Dugswell2 | 29/09/2018 |
as for PeterD | arranc | 06/03/2018 |
Nice walk from home, up the steps from the coach road, great views of The Wrekin, Long Mynd and the soon to be demolished power station. | heavyhorses | 22/01/2018 |
Parked by the arches to the North, up the steps and then a second lot of steps led up to stile and the HP field. Good view of Power station. | PeterD | 14/01/2018 |
A spot of naughty parking at the junction of station and buildwas road (double yellows but space on the pavement on xmas day). A yomp up through woods and over double bw fence into open pasture. This top is actually one of the better Telford tops with an uninterrupted view to the power station...if you like that kind of thing. | stig_nest | 25/12/2017 |
More Christmas Eve catch-up of new TuMPs. Direct ascent from SE, parking spot by Upper Forge Pool Sluices. Steep slippery brambly woodland, cross rail line & road and bwfs, not recommended. | Aye Jimmy | 24/12/2017 |
Parked at Westminster Farm, and hobbled up the field and through the open gate hidden behind the small wood to reach a pleasant top to recomplete Telford. View dominated by 4 cooling towers. And so to Manchester. | GordonAdshead | 20/12/2017 |
As summitsup. Made the hp to beSJ66607 04383. Steps were covered in snow and leaves. Very slippy but otherwise straightforward. | Campbell Singer | 15/12/2017 |
Parked by the steps at 66710 04493. Followed the steps and path up then over a stile. No other fences. | clivevilla | 15/12/2017 |
Parking by large gate to North. Don't head straight for hill top. There is a double bwf just before the summit. Rather head for lone tree & hedge corner. Follow hedge up to end of fence & open gate, then follow fence to summit. 
Telford & Wrekin recompleted. | ngthack | 07/12/2017 |
From N, HP in pasture a few metres beyond fence. Well spotted Charlie! | RHW | 02/12/2017 |
Initially via PFP from SJ66680451, then woodland steps and a stile at SJ66690435 to gain the pasture and top. | summitsup | 18/11/2017 |
