As Beeliner, parked on Farnham Lane (the old road) to the front of house No. 101 & N. across the wide grassy area to junction with Crown Lane. | gerrybowes | 19/06/2023 |
Cycled from the west on a windy morning. It's a road junction... | cjwilliams | 25/03/2023 |
Easy parking on Farnham Lane right opposite Crown Lane. Walked around on the grass then got back in the car. Mountaineering at its best! Solo. | Dangerous Dave | 09/02/2022 |

Lockdown day trip, first of the day and a drive up. 
Parked on Farnham Lane opposite Crown Lane and got out of car to cross grass and high point on opposite road junction. 
Now on to Ashley Hill. | mntainman | 05/07/2020 |

On own. Simple! Parked on Farnham Lane (old road outside house no.101) onto grass verge with Crown Lane straight ahead. Lone conifer tree marks 'high' spot. | Beeliner | 22/03/2019 |

1/4. Drive from Hertfordshire to Dorset on a very wet day: all 4 were easy bags with a minimal amount of time spent out of the car! East Burnham Park, Bassett Avenue, Ringwood Road, Corfe Hills. | PGCE | 08/02/2019 |

Quiet drive down the M1 and round the M25. Most unusual. Does Slough get any better than the hp? Probably not. | Campbell Singer | 16/11/2017 |

A quick detour after Shrubs Hill and Fultness Wood Hill on a quiet Thursday afternoon. | Dugswell2 | 03/11/2016 |
Another one solely for the bagger. | clivevilla | 26/08/2016 |

This is hardly worth getting out of the car. Junction of two roads. Solo. | bolton | 24/05/2016 |
Parked opposite and took short walk after dodging shower. | Ramblingpaul | 25/04/2016 |

A slight detour on the way to Wexham Park Hospital from Slough station. A generally pleasant walk except for the parts of Park Road with no footpath. The top is a bit underwhelming but they can't all be spectacular. | Sixtyplus | 04/03/2016 |
Parked next to it and stood on the highest bit of grass | r.ashwell | 21/02/2016 |
Bike from Burnham Station. Farnham Lane is an unpleasant bike ride due to it being a busy narrow road. Returned through Slough Trading Estate which is not picturesque but does feel safer for cycling. Top is at junction with Crown Lane | trimarc2 | 01/12/2015 |
4/8 Fourth one on Bad weather day so county tops bagging for the day, (Park Lane/Ashley Hill/Bowsey Hill/East Burnham Park/Pavis Wood/Whitehill/Bow Brickhill/The Slipe) | Fergalh | 24/10/2015 |

Driveby. Too embarrassed to get out of car ;-) | RHW | 28/06/2015 |
Further west from this grassy wide verge of the Slough Unitary Authority Top is Burnham where Mike Ashley grew up. He is the UK billionaire (15th richest person in Britain) who never gives interviews -Britain's answer to the late Howard Hughes. He is the owner of Sports Direct(which owns the likes of the Karrimor brand) and he owns Newcastle United (watches from the terraces along with the fans). Apparently his parents still live in a modest bungalow in Burnham, although he is believed to live in Hertfordshire. | Chris Pearson | 14/06/2015 |
