    Yes Probably if I can get there on time, it's on the far side of Sheffield to me.

    One small problem (other than knee deep snow near the Headstone) we couldn’t find Wyming Brook Knoll – if we knew what we were looking for it might have helped.

    Is it a large outcrop of rock? (Not my understanding of a knoll). Is it anywhere near the top path that ‘we’ use over summer to get to the stream at Wyming Brook?

    Its about 300m down from the edge path, horrible brambly slope to get down to it (or up from it). It is a knoll as you know it -about a 50/100m long little hill.

    How did you find it SM

    The t shirt in the tree was a bit tough but every thing else was ok. I was running with Kinder Surprise for a while Not my best effort but got back in reasonable time.
