Now massively overgrown, amazing to see some of the photos here with cleared vegetation & a view. Hopefully landowner will cut the veg back again, currently no views at all & a little bush bashing required hence low score. Accessible via a path into woodland west of path approx 10 yards south of trig, then can be seen on right once in woods, but be wary of exposed barbed wire at ground level in undergrowth.

Parked at Norbury Park, continued on foot another three hundred metres up Crabtree Lane then right at Crabtree Cottages. One hundred and fifty metres further on, on the left is the pillar just set back a little way from the path, vegetation cleared has eased access to it. Good condition. Raised S prefix, fairy good view to east and Boxhill from the other side of the path.

Let's start with the good news: as of April 2020, they've stopped charging for use of the nearby Norbury car park. Hurrah! Seventh and final trig bag for me today, and a total pig it was, too. It's not on the bridleway; you have to turn off to the left through a gap in the hedge just before the field begins. And even then, at this time of year, you need a bit of luck to spot it. It's on the right, at the edge of said field, and surrounded by foliage which does a very good job of obscuring it. I was on the verge of giving up on this one, and only saw it by a stroke of luck. As with most of the trigs in this neck of the woods, it's best visited in winter.

Parked at Beachy Wood Pay and display £1.70 for 1 hour using the download app! This parking system has only recently been installed and speaking to other walkers and dog walkers a lot of people are now not parking here. The trig is located on east side of bridleway hidden amongst brambles, nettles and trees. Spent ages scrating amongst the foliage.

I parked in Norbury Park Crabtree Lane car park. Owned by Surry Wildlife Trust. Its pay and display but no machines. So you have to do it by app or phone with credit card details. As I don't take cards out and don't have a phone that does apps it was quite tricky.i shall be emailing Surrey Wildlife to inform them alternative ways of making a payment need to be provided (like envelopes and post box like at Ditchling Beacon). The trig itself is on footpath, just set back and was covered in tall bracken but bear field entrance so easy to reach (after squashing bracken)

We parked at the end of the road and walked up the lane to the trig. Not a very inspiring location compared to other nearby trigs. Activated the trig for Worked All Britain amateur radio net. Last one of the day.

For a good walk, recommend going on a bit further, then cutting through the woods(walking down the tree line and going in the corner of the field is best), then going down to druids grove, then back to the car park.
