Broadside Law

I saved Broadside Law (444m) towards the end of my Cheviot 99 hill bagging as I never fancied the long drive from Alwinton along the little single track road to Blindburn.

But it had to be done to help complete the challenge. With the car ditched at the parking area at Blindburn, I just followed the road back east, past the farm buildings and then following the fingerpost onto the permissive path.

There is a little footbridge to get you over the Blind Burn and then I continued on a little track hugging the burn to a gate where I just made my up to the top of Broadside Law.

Follow the route above or find it on OS Maps. Just over 1.5km and 150m ascent. You may as well Carlcroft Hill too while you're here which is just another 1km further.
