No need for hill clothes, or a rucksack, just a short walk up a tarmac road to the summit.

Heading along the road towards See Morris Wood:


After crossing a cattle grid at the end of the wood, I had to walk quite close to cows and bullocks. On seeing myself, they ran away and thankfully didn’t run back towards me.

Beyond the wood:


Yet another Sub2000ft Marilyn with a transmitter near the summit.

Approaching the transmitter:


To reach the summit, I skirted the transmitter fencing on the left. After going through a gate, it was an easy ascent up grass to the summit. More cattle located near the summit.
