Hmm looks a bit grey over there, hmm Hanley seems to have disappeared, a minute later wind and hail beats us away from the car...came back when it had briefly clamed down after some oatcake consumption to grab the tump top. Used to look up here about 30 years ago - nice to come up for an explore at last...reminiscent of Cannock Chase

The whole pillar, plate and all has been painted white since the last recorded visit. Details will be updated when I arrive home in September.

Could be a good view, if all the buildings were not there. Slightly misty, if it had been a little thicker then the view of the Celestial City would have been improved. Perhaps the view improve with summer vegetation and sunshine.
