Dist:0.1km<br/>One of few opportunities to get a good view west from the road between Pinnacle Hill and Black Hill. Rolling countryside abounds.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Wonderful to see cattle back on the Malvern Hills. An area on the western side of Black Hill has been temporarily fenced off (enclosed) by the Malvern Hills Conservators. In some ways this appears strange as the conservators were originally set up by act of parliament to stop the hills being enclosed.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Looking southwards along the spine of the Malverns from the high level path on the western flank of Pinnacle Hill. The 'layered' defences of the Hereford Beacon hill fort to the right.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Looking south to the Herefordshire Beacon. Mable leads the herd along the path on the side of Pinnacle Hill to the next patch of grass. This small herd of cattle move around the hills in the summer to help keep the weeds down.

Dist:0.3km<br/>Showing that the recent wind has been blowing from the south west causing the frost to form like horizontal icicles on the twigs of the trees making them appear several times their normal thickness.

Dist:0.3km<br/>On the north west side of Black Hill. I saw over twenty on the hills this morning. I only took two to eat! In the distance is the distinctive outline of Herefordshire Beacon. [[2077836]]

Dist:0.3km<br/>Looking southwards towards the Hereford Beacon. There is an uneasy peace between cyclists and walkers on the Malverns with the Conservators trying to accommodate both.
