Default Levelling a lawn

First post to this group so apologies if this is one off those topics
regularly discussed.

My lawn is in 'fairly' good condition and fortunately big enough to

justify
a ride on mower.

There is a 'drop' in the lawn where it appears the prevoius owners were
going to lay some foundations then decided against this.

As the mower approaches the drop (not huge ~6", and sloping) and subseqent
rise the lawn is destroyed by the mower which can not handle this slope.

I would like to level this part of the lawn.

How do I go about this? - Loads of top soil, roller to flatten, then seed

...

Many thanks for any suggestions.


if the rest of the soil is in good condition, level, well draining etc, then
yes, that is about it. Fill in the hollow, level, leave a little while for
any settling and re-seed.
