A lesser known hill than Beacon next door amd much quieter if thats what you prefer. In my personal opinion the views are much better though not 360 im afraid. The actual top of the hill is not accessible as its on private land. Well worth it even so...

Broombriggs Farm is a mosaic of small fields enclosed by dry stone walls, hedgerows, fences and woodlands. They are managed to provide permanent pasture for grazing livestock and to grow various arable crops.

The Farm was donated to Leicestershire County Council in 1970 by the Frear family. Their desire was to preserve its natural beauty as a typical Charnwood Forest farm. Today, the farm is still managed in traditional ways which help to retain its varied landscapes and fine views over the surrounding countryside.
