Description Bo Peep consists of a NE ridge to the East of TO, a large NE bowl and beyond that, a lower NE ridge. To the West of TO there is a quarry and two large NE bowls to the trig point (700 ft, 217 metres). Beyond that, there is a northerly ridge running right past Firle to the big north bowl at Beddingham Hill. In exceptional conditions it is possible to soar the whole ridge right past Beddingham to the quarry at the end and back
