I parked in the car park by the ruined mine buildings at Carn Galver and took the path up the stream that comes in from the SW to the north of Watch Croft. I had read somewhere that there is a path branches off this that takes one to the top. And I thought I had found it, I certainly found what seemed to be the start of the path. But not really. It quickly petered out and from then on the ascent was utter hell, fighting my way through a foiest of  brambles and gorse and general horribe deep, spikey vegetation. Eventially I made it to the top whichm according to hill-bagging.co.uk is a wee rocky tor about 25m SW of the trig point. At the trig point I found a path heading west towards a ruined building from where an excellent path led easily back to the road about a km west of where I was parked. If you want to climb this hill be sure you go the way I came down and at al costs avoid the way I went up.
