From High Vinnalls G/WB-012, we crossed back to the other side of Ludlow and out on the A4117 towards Cleehill village.  A large signpost marks the left turning for Titterstone Clee Hill, so route finding was trivial for this leg of driving.  We parked in the large car park at the end of the long access lane, and set off for our short walk to the summit.

It is only a short gently rising walk from the car park to the summit trig on Titterstone Clee Hill, and being here for the first time without Liam in tow made this very short work for Jimmy and myself.  It was sufficiently breezy on the summit to force Jimmy briefly into his jacket, but that was soon removed in the comfort of the hollowed out shelter.  This was another rapid activation, with only 21 minutes required for us to get our four contacts each into the logbook.  Further calls were made, but there were no further takers, so we packed up, descended and returned to the car for the journey across to Brown Clee Hill G/WB-002.
