Are you able to get to the top of the bank, if so you can lower a mower on a
rope! works a treat.

This is very dangerous advice.

Not at all if done with care when you have no alternative. Both my
neighbour and myself had to use this method on our steep banks ay my
last house. Flymo on a long rope.

Highly recommended.
