    Tried to get a look at this yesterday, using the footpath a field away to the south, but couldnt get a good view of anything other than a slight raise in the ground. I dont like just going into fields without footpaths by climbing gates and fences, so didnt. However, I suspect that if the right person to ask was known, they ought not to have too many objections to a visit, the fields appear to be used for horses, so a quick look shouldnt cause too much disruption.

    The best view I could find from a public space was while driving up the busy A38.
