There are great views from this spot, right next to Hepton Hill (the summit is actually on the road by the same name, just next to this place). It's a lovely vista, particularly towards Castle Howard into the distance and the hills in general. There is a seat provided as well

Hiking

Great views southwest across the Castle Howard estate. Descend the public bridleway south alongside Spring Wood to join a public footpath that runs west to Bog Hall, from which you can follow further public footpaths either north or south around the estate.
