Rang the farm and asked if I could have permission to reach high point. Delightful lady replied that I would be welcome and should use her access road to reach the house. She came out to greet me and her mother was detailed to show me where best to park. Followed me to the parking location and showed me where to go to reach the highest point. MORAL. Don't trespass .... just ask (or ring beforehand) | moorsman | 19/07/2024 |
Permission to access the trig given at farm. Nipped into adjacent field for Tump summit. | Alan Caine | 30/07/2022 |
Parked by the church in Bourton. Short walk along B4378 then ROW until arable summit field which has a weather station in NW corner. Lovely walk on cool sunny spring afternoon in beautiful scenery. Solo. About 75m ascent | RoguePulsar | 27/02/2022 |

Parked in NT car park near Presthope for a circuit of 4 Tumps: Blakeway Coppice, then SW for a short way before SE through old quarry to road, then ROW to SH 254, then N side of fence around field boundaries to Bourton Westwood, Dove Hill and Easthope Wood. | PGCE | 23/09/2021 |

7 of 7 was dark by the time I got to this one and he rain was really coming down quick bag then back to the camper | The-Z-Man | 17/11/2019 |
Parked in small layby at SO599 967 and followed track, then path and then tramlines through a ripening crop of barley. Summit within the barley with trig over the hedge in a small horse paddock. Managed to hack a path through brambles, cleavers, nettles, hogweed etc which had filled a gap in the hedge so got to the trig too, passing through a small gated compound for the comms mast. | Herbert Anchovy | 18/07/2019 |
Fourth of a 4 tump circuit from Wenlock Edge car park. Took lane from just outside Bourton, then SE side of hedgeline. Walked up field boundary until I could see the trig on the other side of hedge but field only very recently planted so didn't venture further. ROW better defined as it approached Much Wenlock. | milimana | 15/04/2019 |
Drove up the drive to the impressive farm and asked permission to go over the field. The young farmer was happy to agree. | Campbell Singer | 25/01/2018 |

from Bourton Grange- a decent track deteriorates to an overgrown path. corn and maize crops in fields to top. not great for hay fever. trig is behind hedge and not the highest point. returned via a direct route to road. | Laura.W | 02/06/2016 |
From SO 598 966. | summitsup | 25/04/2015 |
Parked on the B4378 and walked up along field boundaries to reduce the chance of an encounter with a farmer. It worked well except that the trig point is in a small field next to the farm and there were some noisy ewes in that field who thought I was going to feed them. No farmer appeared. | clivevilla | 25/03/2015 |
Trig in field. | stig_nest | 11/03/2015 |
Walked up right of way from main road and then followed field boundary. Small pony now living in field with trig :-) | heavyhorses | 04/03/2015 |
