Remove this section if you don't want an image at the top (left) of your report.  You should remove the "Image:" or "File:"

And DON'T FORGET to add your expedition and the best photo you took to the gallery on the Main Page! We'd love to read your report, but that means we first have to discover it!

Location

Nr. Hood Hill Farm, Hood Hill, Wentworth, ?Barnsley? (Very close to Sheffield, but I think it's still technically in Barnsley.)

Participants

Monty plans to be there within an hour. Probably half an hour. He nearly passed it on the way out, and will now definitely be stopping off when he goes home.

Plans

The hashpoint itself lies just off of a public footpath that leads from the Warren (a hilly, wooded area above Chapeltown) towards Barley Hall and the Wentworth Estate. Since the M1 has cut through the area, the segment of the route from the Warren to the Kirby Lane (Hood Hill to Thorpe Hesley road, Kirby Lane/Barnsley Road) has been diverted to the end of the A6135 road bridge.

Monty will probably park up at the A6135/M1 bridge and walk the dog-leg down to the original path, which is a few yards from what might well be a gate into the necessary field (signs of use, probably by cattle, in the overheads) and then work out whether it would be a legitimate continuation to pop into the field and across a thin strip of land to the adjacent field boundary where a Hashtree might well be found.

The alternate plan is to turn onto Kirby Lane and park up at/approach from the other end of the path segment, but with much the same result.

Walking time: five minutes tops. Right, I might as well be off then (after sorting out the Expedition Planning tags, etc), for a driving time of 15-20 minutes from posting, if all goes well.
