 Housedon Hill from the north. |

| The cairn at the northern top. |
 |
| The south summit. |
 |
| The wood. |

Across the Glen from the Cheviots, this appears to be geologically similar, certainly not a fell sandstone hill. The top is cattle pasture, with a wind gnarled wood on the east face. There is doubt as to the summit. I think its the open southern top, but the cairned northern wood edge top has a good claim. The 1:50 000 spot height is nonsense. I approached from Flodden in the north. The views, once out of the trees,are very fine.Both up the Glen and across to the Cheviots. Sadly it was very hazy today. |
