Where: Drum Maw, 445m/1,460', P 93m, Tump, OS 72, NT 177 471
Drum Maw from Mountain Cross.....
I parked at the cemetery which is just east of the village and joined the Cross Border Drove Road.....
The route initially went through some forestry before emerging at a col where there was a great view of more hills to the south- typical Borders scenery.....
Drum Maw from near the col.....
Immediately on leaving the forest, I turned up the grassy east slopes of the hill- quite steep but with traces of a path. The summit was not far and was marked by a cairn. There were excellent views of the Pentland Hills to the north-east and the Broughton hills to the west with Tinto in the far distance.....
Another pleasant hill.
