Parked on minor road just north of Brackenslack Lane & bridleway to the SSW of trig. Then used bridleway to gain access to the bottom of Fouson's Rigg then one final gate to trig.

We parked up in the village of Colby and followed the country lane to the bridleway leading to Jerusalem Farm. Walked through the racehorse stables and along the muddy track until it bends to the left. At this point we considered heading straight up the field, but decided instead to go through the gate to the next field and up that one. As it turned out, either would have been fine as there were connecting gates leading to the nice pasture meadow with the pillar. Nice views all around. Not many pubs open on a Tuesday so settled for a beer at the Tufton Arms Hotel in Appleby.

Parked at the end of the bridleway leading to Jerusalem Farm. The farm is an extensive race horse stables. The trig is just one grass field above the bridleway, over a gate, through a swamp and your there, pick a dry period.

From Grid NY 6537 1891 on path to east up to gate at top of field, easy walk. However I came from west down the track from road bend to north - awful, overgrown and fences to climb.

Interesting rough white border round spider on 'face'.. Km walk south from road. One final barbie fence but with section without staple fixing so can be pushed down and carefully straddled.

I alighted the 08.26 Skipton to Carlisle train at Appleby, I then walked the Dales High Way/Public Bridle Ways from the east then up field boundary to gate at top of field that leads to the pillar. A brilliant easy ramble in good weather with fantastic views of the Pennines from the summit, Appleby Castle next stop.

From the N parking at NY 6457 1970. Pillar has lost its centre cap, replaced with a mortar plug; rear sight hole open. Rough cattle pasture. Extensive views, particularly good E to Pennines.

Followed the bridleway through the farmyard to a pond (being drained) and then uphill diagonally right to 2 access gates. The bitter east winds of March had turned any grass brown which spoilt my appropiate rendition of England's green and pleasant land.Good views across to the snow splattered North Pennines

Good parking at start of 'lane' along side of plantation to the NW. Easy going all the way with just one fence to cross immediately before the pillar.

Thought I would be clever and parked inside the gateway and followed the bridleway but not advised at this time of day! Met the farmer in his tractor who said he would be locking a centre post in the gate entrance due to having had 200 ewes stolen recently. He assured me my MINI would be able to get out between the stone wall and the post. I duly returned having taken the route followed by others and sure enough the post had been locked in place. By folding the nearside mirror in , I just managed to get out.

My 99th extant pillar, and what a patriotic name and day for the occasion! I parked just off the road junction at NY 6477 1795 - a little tight with two wheels just on the edge of the bank and the left side of the car almost in the hedge! I followed the bridleway along a stony farm track to the ENE. As I turned NNW along the track a group of cows in the field to my left followed my progress all the way along to the next gateway. Then a new bunch in a field to the right followed me the length of their field! Up the hill a bit I had to duck under a rope fence to continue along the PROW and through the gate into a meadow-like field - of waist-high grass and yellow flowers - grazed by sheep. Deviating from the bridleway here I walked round the S and W side of this field to a gate in the NW corner. This allowed access to the much wilder clumpy field containing the pillar which was easily visible. Pillar has ?metal replacement cap; FB faces NW; SE sighthole open, all others plugged. Views of surrounding hills - very much England’s green and pleasant land!

Walked into this one on the bridle way, which is now part of the route for upgraded pipeline ???sewage. Quick detour off the ROW into a field head high with wild oats and reed filled boggy patches. View across to the Pennine escarpment.

Followed Senrabyar`s footsteps literally. His imprints were still in the long grass and lead from RoW across fields to trig. Pillar in good condition. Spider plugged with smooth brown resin. Flush bracket faces 289° WNW. Vented though eastmost sight hole.

As I understand it, there are two main methods used to name a TP. The first, and commonest, is after the geographical feature on which the TP stands. The second method is to name the site after the name of the farm on whose land the TP has been placed.

Easy access. Pennines still in cloud so disappointing views. Not quite such a green and pleasant land today. Back to Appleby for train home - questioned on platform as to why my boots were so muddy - should have said that I'd just been to Jerusalem 8-)

Jeruselem my ar*! - its Foulsons Rigg - guess its listed as such for effect (visited Jerusalem this Easter!!!!). Easy access from the nearby bridleway, theres a gate in the field corner next to the trig. Absolutely stonking view of the hills north of Appleby and south to Mallerstang & Wild Boar Fell which were all covered in snow today. No view to the lakeland fells at our visit as the weather was closing in and visibilty in that direction was lost in the snow shower. Would have added another point but for that. Unassuming hill but what a view!! Did make an impact at work though when I was asked if Id done anything over the Easter weekend and replied that Id been to Jerusalem!!
