Slievemore - a small hill with big views

by madfrankie 17 May 2010

Slievemore is the highest top of the low sandstone ridges that dominate the landscape of south east Tyrone.
Our approach was to the north of the hill, parking at H589 623 star

I where a minor road crosses the upland. A windfarm dominates the hillside, and there are considerable turf-cuttings in the area.
Getting up was not too arduous, but there were some awkward patches of high heather. A small turfy knoll at the summit is crowned, not by the usual cairn or pile of stones, but by three concrete blocks, one on top of the other. Diminutive it may be, but the views, especially to the north, are wide-ranging, from Cuilcagh and the Dartrys to the south and west, to the Sperrins northwards.
Our descent was via a rubbish tip where a grassy track brought us back to the tarred road. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/940/comment/4746/
