Meigh’s Wood is the high point of the Unitary Authority of Solihull, within the Historic County of Warwickshire and in the Ceremonial County of West Midlands. It’s very close to Corley Moor, the high point of Coventry so it makes sense to bag them in the same trip

This one is a quick drive-by with parking in a layby off the B4102 Fillongley Road. This high point is deceptively named as it’s actually in Boultbee’s Wood which is on the opposite side of the A4102 from Meigh’s Wood. From the layby enter the woods and follow the fence on the northern boundary with the field. The high point is roughly half way along the boundary with the field. There’s nothing to mark the summit.
