- Nick Wakelam says...
- Final hill on a clockwise horseshoe walk from New Radnor (easy parking). Good paths most of way round. The smallest hill today; but the best looking from most angles and certainly the most interesting top also with great views in two directions. It is not ROW or Access; but there is a well worn path up both ends of ridge and no keep out signs; so landowner doesn't seem to bother about walkers on their land.
