We parked at the Inn in Clovensford and walked up to the farm before following the track to the summit of Meigie Hill. The summit cairn is behind the wall where a gate gives access. We returned the same way rather than do the circular walk as we wanted to do another short walk before heading home. The second walk we did was Sell Moor and started this one from the B6362. There is parking just after the cattle grid on this road and we just headed up beside the trees, crossed a wall and a fence and then picked up a grass track to the summit, returning the same way.
