6 facts checked against the Sky Surfing Club guide
The read

An east-facing hill on a NNE through E. Restricted landing and a rough north end make it more a paraglider site.

Is it my level

CP plus ten hours, unless arranged with a coach.

Launch

Launch from any area clear of scrub; the south end is best.

Landing

Bottom land when the field is not in crop. No real top landing.

Getting there

Off the A3 at the Chalton signpost, left fork before the pub; small roadside spaces, walk under the railway.

The catch

A railway line runs the lower boundary and power lines cross the south side. Scrub covers much of the hill.

Who do I ask

Sky Surfing Club

Sky Surfing Club steward this site. The takeoff and landing photos, the full rules and who to ring live in their guide.
