Intrigued by the juxtaposition of a pillar next to an Intersected Station - why did the OS need to build a pillar if they could use the existing built structure, or - why did they give the structure a Station number when they'd built a pillar? Other examples I have visited include Peniel Heugh / Waterloo Monument near Kelso, Briedden Hill / Rodneys Monument on the Welsh Border, Malcolms Monument / Monument Hill at Langholm, Calton Hill / Nelsons Monument in Edinburgh...There must be a good reason but it eludes me as to why it might be?

One of seven trigs bagged along the A66 corridor, making my way to Keswick for the bank holiday weekend. This was the second. Parked Hurghil Rd for a short walk to the pillar sited next to the beacon. There's a sign indicating a bull in the field albeit it actually had ewes and lambs grazing there. The pillar is incorporated into the boundary wall/fence. I suspect the ground level has been raised since it was installed but it appears to in generally good condition albeit the original centre for the spider is missing and the hole filled with concrete or similar. Reasonable views.
