    I've never been, I spotted the power lines behind, got my map of Calderdale out and followed the pylons...

    Assuming you stayed on that side of the valley at a guess the others were Delf Hill (378), Standing Stone Hill (398), Bride Stones Moor (437/8), and maybe Hoof Stones Height (479) which looks a bit of a tussocky detour if Bride Stones was included or Extwistle Hill (242) which looks like it's off route and in the middle of a boring field. Map fondling games are quite fun!

    Dan, based on some of your previous posts:-

    Starting from "home in Tod",

    Bridestones 932 267
    Hoofstones 914 291
    Robin Cross Hill 884 294
    Thieveley Pike 871 271
    Trough Edge End 906 219


    Effectively the trigs of the Cornholme / Portsmouth Valley watershed.

    Hence a view of Ingleborough from Hoofstones ( Black Hameldon ).

    As per my clubmate GrahamL, Bowlanders do enjoy map-fondling exercises!
