Penpole Point is a stone sundial standing at 67m on the western end of the hill. It marks the end of the Kings Weston estate. There used to be great views from here but in recent years it's become overgrown. Still a nice place to sit and enjoy a break from your walk.

Goram in legend was a giant who fought with his brother Vincent for the attentions of Avona. There are many old names around Bristol that relate to this story and features that depict where one of the giants sat, stamped, dug a trench to allow the river Avon to flow or died. Here is Goram's soap dish.

The section from Severn Beach to New Passage on the paved England Coast Path might look tempting to ride, but it is a public footpath only used lots by the elderly, wheelchair users, unleashed dogs, fishermen and young children. Beware as I've hears reports that some locals will you give a lot of grief for riding this section, plus your insurance is void too if you cause an accident... I live nearby and suggest sticking to Route 4, or just enjoy the walk. The bit of Route 4 near Old Passage remains because of sea defence works (reopening late 2022 we're told) but there are nice back roads through Olveston to Aust or Route 41 through Ingst if you plan on crossing the M48 bridge to Chepstow and the more serious hills, beautiful Welsh scenery beyond.

Short but sweet diversion... worth doing if you're not in a rush.

By the side of the path - next to a the monument - some lovely ironwork as well.
