Unusually good weather conditions for February and fantastic views allowed us to ponder the location of surrounding high ground. A stone pillar that is not the usual height of regular cement type. Sequence of styles and stone walls provide excellent shelter from wind regardless of direction. Descending to River Dee via Arten Gill adds credence to this walk. The viaduct is an unexpected feature.Recommend you park at the station of Ribbleshead. Take the train to Dent cost of £3.40 and walk back to Ribbleshead.

A fantastic day, icy with plenty of snow on (some of) the fells. Up from Cowgill - thankfully not as long a trek as the Aye Gill trek done in October - and better views, really appreciate the size of the Yorkshire/Cumbria range. Icy beautiful route back via Arten Gill under pink cold skies. The joy like many of these fells is the ascent and descent - imagine it's a bit of a quagmire in patches when no ice.

Ouch!

I cannot believe I have overlooked every previous visit I have made to this delightful stone built trig point. First visit was in 2005 and then in 2008, both of which were on 'Fellsman' sweeps. Today was a foul day in the late morning and afternoon but by the time we left Stonehouse it had developed into a beautiful evening. All the way up the Arten Gill track we were bathed in the golden glow of the setting sun. By the time we reached the summit however darkness had fallen but we were still treated to a magnificent 360 degree panoramic view.

Walked up from Dent Station via the Coal Road which leads to Garsdale,then turned right onto the bridleway signposted Arten Gill Moss. From the bridleway i then took the signposted access path alongside the fence straight to the summit. No views as the cloud came in just before i reached the summit. Stumpy stone built trig at the junction of fence & wall. Continued Southeast alongside the wall back to the bridleway before heading on to Wold Fell,Blea Moor & Ribblehead.

Parked at SD77958805 where the bridleway leaves the road for what I thought would be a straightforward walk to the summit following the fence/wall shown on my map. However, the fence/wall seems to have gone and so set the compass to 130 degrees and followed that. Was rewarded with a good 360 degree view. Trig built of local stone, shorter than the usual concrete ones and surrounded by its own moat.

Superb location with awesome views across all the Three Peaks hills and dozens of others too. Deep snow is still hiding much of the trig and I had to scrape off last night's deposit before I could read the FB. Numbers on the FB picked out in yellow paint which is a nice touch from someone. Snow is hard packed now so walking across the top is a doddle. Nice first new trig for 2010.

Above date most recent of four visits, first on 31/07/1978. A short, dumpy trig point. There's now a permissive path up from the old road over Arten Gill Moss.

Splendid day, splendid views, but cold wind. Came up from the west, along the fence, having come round the track that circles the hill. Very nice unfolding views from that track

I liked this short fat stone trig. Parked at the gate to the north west, walked up the track to the sheep pens and then followed the fence to the top. Looks like I missed Trig391 by just a couple of hours.

Parked at SD 71102 95371 on grassy verge then walked along farm track, through the gate and followed the fence to the trig. No cap or plug, but whoever made this knew what they were doing with stone.

Most recent of 4 visits - today was stunning in the sun & the snow (there were ski tracks down the lower hills!). First time in good weather. The approach from Green Bank has some good views of Dentdale, the eastern Lakeland fells, Whernside & Ingleborough. Trigs a bit short and dumpy. A good walk up from Dent Rly station along to Ribblehead or Horton. And again 10/02/2008 & again 31/02/2010. No cars, on foot!!

A nice walk to the summit from Stoneside in Dentdale via Arten Gill and under the superb Arten Gill viaduct,it looks like a lot of restoration work has been carried out along the bridleway,no doubt to combat the damage done by the off road brigade,but despite the no vehicle signs I was passed by a group of off road motorcyclists,but once the sanctuary of the summit was atained,it was peace and quiet and lovely views.

Short, stone-built trig; plug missing. Gaps in the cloud giving momentary glimpses of Dentdale. Long-overdue repairs of the track by Arten Gill underway; the 4WDs had made a real mess of it.
