In the middle of trees but only about 50 feet off the track. 3 mins walk from parking on the lane. Easy to find with the OS app, but I imagine much easier at this time of year too when no brambles & trees not in leaf!

I found this one more due to luck than judgement. As with a previous commenter, I just kept heading up.

Very proud of self for bagging this one! I don't have technology to locate pillars - only to photograph them. So with only my handwritten directions to go on, and the previous logger's pile of stones long gone, the fact I found it within three minutes of leaving the path pleased me greatly! Golden rule as always is keep going up. Anyway... pillar in good condition, if a bit mossy round the FB. No views unless you like trees, which are densely packed all around the trig, and there are no paths leading through them.

Walked from Fittleworth through Little Bognor, very pretty, and woodland footpath to eastern side of Flexham Park to join the Serpent Trail. Head north west into park climbing uphill. Turned left into overgrown copse and tried to guess where the highest point is. Took a while to locate the pillar as there was no obvious track which had been used by others. Eventually found it after losing height a couple of times and heading back into to undergrowth. A GPS device might help but wouldn’t be as much fun. Good find, so extra point for that. No views whatsoever. A short distance from here is the abandoned school at Bedham sitting in the woods. By the way, this was logged after the next visitor, but visited before they did.

Parked at U bend. from the track we took 2nd path. After about 150yds we entered woods and made our way quite easily to the trig, that stood in a cleared area. We left a small pile of stones where we entered!

Rather proud to have found it first time using 1/25000 and AllTrails on my 'phone. LOTS of dense undergrowth and a real fight to get through brambles, bracken and stinging nettles.

After a bit of a struggle through the undergrowth My navigation was bang on! Not wishing to brag, but this one is VERY concealed.

Pillar in good condition. Area has been coppiced and trees have now grown back with vigour. No obvious path to the pillar so I had to push through. Given the dense vegetation it took some time to find the pillar. Recommend that future visits are made in the winter when it should be easier to get through to the pillar.

Had to push my way through trees and brambles to get to this pillar. No view at the moment as it is completely surrounded by trees.

Onwards from the Swan in Lower Fittleworth via Serpent Trail. Deceptively difficult to find in woods, despite map, compass, GPS and no leaves - no views. S s/hole open and moss encrusted, but otherwise exc condition, metal cap, indented letters.

Parking easy at the U-bend in the minor road nearby. Located in a coppiced wood, a little tricky to find - GPS recommended. Pillar has a fair covering of moss, but otherwise in good condition. The HuMP, Bedham Hill, is close by; its summit awkward due to fallen trees. Neither hill or trig have any views.

Managed to find this one without GPS, just using my 1:25k OS map - I think I was lucky to spot it within a minute or two, as it quite easily could have taken a lot longer given the foliage and its distance from the track.

I parked on the road to the south-east and followed tracks to the general area of the trig. Then it was just a case of using the GPS to home in to the pillar itself. It is in good condition and still retains an original metal indented lettered plug. A lovely woodland location especially on a glorious spring day day.

Attempted to spot from track to East first, then plunged into woods and bluebells from South, and found it after thinking it would be a difficult search. Evidence af a recent visitor, but not entered on this site.

I enjoyed this one lots as it was a smashing day to be in the wood on your own, no wind and warm weather. I came to bag the nearby HuMP which is harder to get to than this trig. Found using the GPSr. I am glad that the technology has improved to give a good signal under trees even in the summer.

As hussyhill said - you really need to have sharp eyes to spot this one. I should imagine that in the summer it is impossible to spot! No views, but at least there was a tree to use the gorillapod on, so my camera was not on the floor for once! Me 151m

Gorillapod holding camera to the tree!!! THe photo makes it look less \'tree crowded\' than it is. Very hard to see this trig from the path, even with no leaves on the trees.

Drove along Riverhill Lane, past signs for little Bognor, at the end of Riverhill do immediate right onto dirt track and public bridleway, there is a small car park next to a locked gate. Follow the long path on foot as it goes up hill, as the path flattens out you need to go into the forest on your left, before the path starts to go down hill again. About 30 meters into dense woodland, keep em peeled, it's in there somewhere! The trig is in good condition with plug still in tact, moss grows on the outer, and it looks as if it might have been painted white at some point. Hard to believe that this trig was visible from another trig at some point, given the woodland that surrounds it, although this trig was placed between 1950-1952, so 60 years growth.

Used the GPSr to locate this trig as it is in coppiced woodland. Leaf cover not a problem in November. Trig is moss covered up to the top of the FB. GPSr gave the elevation as 149m.

Quite hard to see it through the trees even in winter but we found it in the end, it was good fun searching.We went back to this trig on the 10/05/06 because we wanted to see it with the blue bells in bloom. Fantastic,so I took another few pics.I don't know if this counts as a new visit but just for the record this is still OK and still quite hard to find (unless you get lucky) even with the GPS.

Located in dense woodland, the lighting conditions made this one particularly hard to find. The GPS wasn't much use, on account of the heavy tree growth. So I just wandered around until I found it. The pillar is in good condition, although there is a fair amount of growth on it due to the environment.
