Lovely! Am I right in believing the Combe Gibbet at Inkpen is the highest point looking east until the Urals?

Oh! I’ve not heard that one! I’ve heard ‘Highest chalk hill in the world’ (well actually its slightly higher neighbour, Walbury Hill) or highest point in southern England (excluding the SW moors) and the highest water body between the south coast & Derbyshire!
