Pleasant views of Malvern and the surrounding areas from up there. The folly is ugly as sin but then it IS a folly so... yeah. Not a particularly difficult climb to get up there from either direction.

The climb up is unrelenting, but not too steep. Gives great views north to the Vale and beyond.

A quite impressive rock formation that really does look like an elephant lying down.

As mentioned at an earlier location, when the fog is thick and low in the Avon valley, you can sometimes get amazing sights such as this, where trees emerge the top of the fog.

The folly itself actually looks like it really is an industrial tower housing mobile phone equipment, but the views are very good. Nearby is the Elephant Stone - it looks like an Elephant kneeing down. Not far from the Cotswold Stone drystone wall is the circular stone that marks the very top of Bredon Hill.
