Visited several times before but never logged. Today I was with Dearne Valley Walking Group on a circular hike out of Crich. A great but humbling place to visit. Today there was a cloud inversion providing for a very different landscape. The pillar looks great with a recent paint job and retains all its metalwork. There's just a little bit of wear to the concrete on the top

Located behind the Crich Memorial Tower. Looking great with its new paint job, with clear views to sites of other nearby trigs. I parked in a lay-by opposite the gate to the memorial. The main (car) gate itself was closed, but there's a kissing gate to the side which you could use. There's a 50p donation to see the tower, which I happily paid. If the car park is open, then theres a £1.50 charge. The sign does also suggest that the memorial has opening times (10am - 4/5pm depending on the time of the year) and is closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I'm not sure if this would restrict access to the trig outside of these hours, but I opted to visit when they were "open" just in case.

Painting this one hopefully added to the beautiful setting,whilst doing this one an old lady who lived near by came to investigate, from her property she could all of a sudden see the trig point again ! If you do visit this trig please donate anything you can to help not only keep the monument operational but it will help the veterans and their families

Spending the day at Crich Tramway Village and walked up from the Glory Mine tramstop mid-afternoon, easy ascent. 360 degree views from the top away across the Peaks, to Staffordshire and Leicestershire and no doubt more. Also the location of Crich Stand Memorial and Crich Beacon summit. Original cap, slight damage to some edges at the top. Returned to the Museum via the memorial access road to Town End.

The trig is directly behind the monument and a special place to stop, stare and be reflective. 2/6 gifted to Fray Bentos who are still churning pies out in a tin.....Vegetable Balti! The original home of Fray Bentos is a town in Uruguay and the factory is a UNESCO site.

(1913) A short distance from TP8966 - with TP14477 visible as well, so all the Crich trigs on view here. Top has been repaired in the past, with some of the screed now missing, but apart from that it is all good. A nice location offering excellent views. Pillar history: Built on the 18th of February 1937, at a cost of £5 8s 8d. Last maintained by the OS in May of 1983.

Parked at entrance to museum as it was now closed. You could drive almost all the way up when it's open. Great views and a shame we couldn't go to the top of the monument at this time of day. Also spotted a benchmark on the building on the way down the hill. http://www.bench-marks.org.uk/bm69427, however I now know there is one on the monument itself and on a stone pillar/gatepost in the car park but I didn't spot these!

En route to our Peak District holiday cottage. Arrived to find monument closed Tues / Weds, but there's parking for one car at the gate so we were able to walk up OK (FOC as well). Stunning all round views and an extra mark for the sheer madness of standing in sunshine, watching a hail storm come ever nearer, painfully engulfing us and then departing SE.

From centre of Crich along roads to the monument. Pleasant location with good if unspectacular views from top of the tower. Trig has significant chip to one top corner (hence recorded as slightly damaged - see photo) but otherwise in good order with metal cap. Took PROW around quarry and down to Cromford Canal. SE along DVH Way to bridge at SK339531 then took PROW through woods. Finally followed country lane past Coddington Farm back into Crich.

visited this pillar on a whim as I had a problem with the car.I have been here lots of times and viewed it more times than i can remember using it for navigation to get home.This memorial turned out to be moving for me as my dad served in the 2nd world war with the Notts and Derby Sherwood Foresters.The barracks were on Sinfin Lane in Derby.The Sherwood Foresters Hotel close by being the officers quarters now closed.I remember playing football at the barracks.I visited the Sargeants mess there for late drinks with friends of the family still in the mob.As I sit under the Memorial sheltering from cold wind and snow I realise as I make my log out Realise its the old mans birthday tomorrow how strange he would have been 96 blimey.

Metal plug [indented letters]. Public - on the grounds of Crich Stand, the impressive memorial to the Sherwood Foresters, my late father's old regiment. The best approach on foot is via the public footpath from Wakebridge, which climbs up through the woods, crosses the tramway and continues up round the rim of the quarry. The whole setting is spectacular, as well as very moving.
