Easy one to get to and park. Large space next to reservoir and a simple walk back. Trig sits in the middle of the field and is easily seen from the road. Trig good, spider, FB and cap all in place. Blue bin does make the FB picture a little more tricky!

Short walk across field of pasture from gate next to reservoir. Fine morning of clear skies and sunshine. Not sure what's in the blue barrel but it's more than water.

Short term parking in reservoir entrance and gate into domed grassy field. Very quick. Not sure why not quite at HP. Blue bucket obscures FB, but just about visible. Lovely clear sunny but cold day.

Parking by the reservoir entrance then a short across empty field. Pillar good condition, still being kept company by the drinking bucket.

The easiest yet. Park in lay-by at service reservoir, climb over nice gate and walk a few yards up the field. Job done. Cracking pillar!

Good parking by the gate. Great views, trig in good condition. At 273m it's 3m short of the nearby spot height, a bit odd. Nevermind, still a good position and easy bag

Parked at field entrance on a minor road crossing Campston Hill, short walk across a soggy pasture to the trig. Pillar generally in good condition, some hair cracks; no sight holes open; original cap. Good views W - Sugar Loaf and Black Mountains; SW - Skirrid Fawr; E - Edmund's Tump.

Almost a roadside pillar with a short trip from road into field. Everything in good order and still has an original plug. Nice views.

Passed by on a circular walk from Whitecastle via Hatterrall Hill. Heavy mist meant there were no views today, which was a shame as I'd imagine they are normally pretty good from here. A small crack runs round three sides of the trig.
