2nd Trig of todays hike. Approached from the north (Padiham Rd). Over a stile then deliberately left the PRoW, following the fence line until reaching the summit (very steep climb with cow shit everywhere). The pillar sits on top of a natural mound and has had graffiti added to it ("SUNA"???) I enjoyed this visit. Not least as my car was parked on the height barrier car park. The rough trig next via a short drive.

Gorgeous spot, hill covered in beautiful woods with songbird sound mingling with curlew from the nearby grass and moorland, on to Wiswell Moor/The Rough next taking old paths to old farmsteads at the side of Sabden. Hill has more than a passing resemblance of mid Wales/Shropshire borders. Pendle splendid with views out to the Irwell Valley moors opposite distance.

Really enjoyed this trig point - a pleasant little walk up to it, gleaming replendently in the afternoon sun. Looks to be very well maintained and recently whitewashed. Lovely spot next to woodland. All in all a lovely trig to visit.

It looks like it is leaning a bit, to me. Good views all round, apart from the bit obscured by the woodland. There is a large cut stone marked R E R at the forest edge - any ideas?

Plastic plug cover; paint flaking and some light graffiti. Next to woodland. Easy access from road. Very overcast. Square block of stone nearby looks as though it was intended for a cider press or suchlike - perhaps it has something to do with the Sabden treacle mines?
