A conical hill - soarable on the East and South sides - useful training area on the NW.

na. Top Landing Not recommended, the ground is uneven & covered in metal spikes! Much better to side land. Bottom landing: NW - Anywhere on the fields without animals. Check with Mr Diamond (Manor Farm) before flying. Only short hops likely on this face. South - T/O just below the top hedge. This can be pleasant in light thermic conditions. Land on the flat area below. East - T/O On the top above the gate. PG pilots can land before the A38, these fields slope too much for HG. PG Side-Slope Landing Plenty of room below the top area. Drive North from Highbridge on the A38. First left to Brent Knoll, after half a mile turn right into Church lane and left into Hill Lane, up the hill to the brow & Manor Farm. Park in the car park on the left. Walk up the footpath (through the farm) to the top of the hill. This is in class D airspace. Ceiling 3000ft. This is in class D airspace. Ceiling 3000ft.

Top T/O’s are over fences or hedges. Do not fly NW or S faces in strong winds as lower ridges produce dangerous turbulence. There is considerable rotor on the East face if the wind is off to the north. Not recommended for HG, either flying or the carry! Very rough in thermic conditions. Used as a training site (top to bottoms) & PG ground handling. PG easy while treated as a training site. If you try to soar it is unfriendly and has a very narrow lift band. HGs have not flown here for many years.
