There is parking space at the top of the minor road over Dane Head from where it is a very short easy walk to the top of Cheeks Hill. A very short walk downhill from there leads to the corner of a wall that is the county summit of Staffordshire. Good paths over the moors lead from there to Axe Edge End then minor roads lead through Hill Top to Oxenstich Farm. From here I set off heading more or less straight or the summit of Oliver Hill. The terrain was pathless and horrible. From the top I went NW to meet up with the path going south from Oxenstich. THis was much easier and I would have had a much easier life going up this same way. From there up the road to Orchard Common - passing Readyleech Green a lot of unfriendly dogs barked furiously at me but were safely enclosed - and so back to the start.
