High point on far side of a double electric fence. Luckily a stile has been provided by the high point. Unfortunately my legs aren't long enough, even using the stile, to get over the top strand of the first fence so I went under the bottom strand instead. The stile was fine for the second fence.Alan Moore31/08/2021

Top,from Corgarff Castle car park in an anticlockwise circuit, in very warm conditions. Electic fence can give a nasty shock and no easy way of getting over it here unlike the 2 earlier possible tops.Dugswell225/05/2012
