Lies on the SW face of Black Hill overlooking Dunsinane Hill in the Sidlaws.
The locals would prefer parking in the usual parking for Dunsinane Hill, Black Hill and King's Seat. NO2071 3211, https://w3w.co/tribes.tunes.envoy. It's a 15m walk up the hill taking a left-hand-fork either when the trees on your left stops at https://w3w.co/shuttled.cage.sleepless, or when you see the quarry fencing on your right at https://w3w.co/punctured.mimed.empty, which takes you through the bealach between Black Hill and Dunsinane.
The small cutting on B953 at grid NO223317 was filled with boulders indicating the locals do not like parking here. Alternately there is a layby (also with some boulders) at NO211310, or even on the verge of the B953 at NO218313 near a field gate but away from the house entrance on the south side of the road. The gate now (2021) has a sign stating 'no access to hill' also indicative of an unfortumate dislike of recreational use of the hill.
Parking and access from Collace is common, normal and accepted, as hill walkers and runners regularly park at the gate SE of collace (56.468853, -3.268226) as mentioned above, so it's seen as 'the' place to park locally for access to these hills from the south-west.
Please don't litter.
