Parked up by the FP and walked up through the small wood to the open field. Made sure I covered most of the high ground to get a good feeling for the siting of the pillar. The TUMP height is given as 132m but the OS shows 129m at the top. Regardless, by wandering around I guess I did enough to log it.

Parked in the village and followed the ROW to the field which is just a muddy mess. The ROW sign has now disappeared from the road side.

ROW from goad to the north... Big grassy field that used to have a trig S5658... deceased apparently in 01/92 though I can't see any reason why.... It would've been the 88th birthday trig on my ex Michelle's Birthday Trig Walk of Life. She won't be shedding any years!!

Large pasture, looks like open access for dog walkers. OS records this destroyed January 1992.

Why am I standing here, in the wind and the rain? The GPS says I am within 2ft of the trig. The reality is different!

HISTORY: Pillar completed 6th September 1948, no record of cost. Computed as secondary triangulation station NY11/3 within the Workington block during 1952. Flush bracket S5658 was levelled for height in 1965. This station was last maintained by the OS in 1977. The OS state that this pillar was destroyed in January 1992. SITE VISIT: GPS`d my way to exact spot. Still missing. Was S5658. Large smooth empty field. This pillar has apparently been the victim of a bad farmer or from previous quarrying operations now landfilled. Shame as it`s a nice location. Overlooks Criffell.

S5658 - Broughton Moor no more. Criffell in the background.
