Metal plug (raised letters). I lived in Arnold many years, so back on old ground. Mossy pillar in woodland on right side of path a short way along beyond last house at top of lane. Wood popular with dog walkers.

A very easy bag walking uphill along Killisick Lane, Arnold. The trig pillar is on the right through a squeeze gap just around a 3 minute walk from where I parked. I continued from here to create a circular 2.8 mile walk taking in Arnold Lodge and Dorket Head trigs

Approached from Asda at Arnold, taking the Surgey's Lane route heading up. When the lane bends R a bridleway continues past the last houses on your right into woodland. Before you know it the pillar is there to your right through the gateway. The cap is missing as is one of the loops. However, I class this pillar as good because it does appear to have been subject to some repair work at some point. No views due to woodland.

(1435) Tackled this one from the Howbeck Road/Killisick Lane entrance, which was a pleasant enough walk. A quicker route would have been via Surgey's Lane. Plenty of dog walkers about today. Area overgrown so walked passed the pillar and had to double back. Quite battered, but still standing. No new damage really evident. Plug missing, with greenery now growing out of the centre pipe. Pillar history: Built on the 22th of August 1948, at a cost of £8 10s 10d. Last maintained by the OS in January of 1983.

On way to see friends in Carlton, NE Nottingham, and bagged this one on the way, I've wanting to hit this one for a number of years. It's easily found though hard to imagine the area stripped of its vegetation as it was when the trig was operational: were the views S and E? Spider is missing and the white paint is peeling, but hey, the place had winter atmosphere to it. By the way, nearby Dorket Head trig has been given a fresh lick of white paint; round of thanks to whoever is looking after it, it looks great, especially at night.

Easy access from the top of the nearby road head. Surrounded by trees, but thanks to the person who has recently cut back all the nettles surrounding this trig. Previously painted in some rubber-based paint which is now peeling off, damage to top corner, centre and E s/hole open, repairs to top have removed one retaining loop, but its hanging in there!

On a circular trig stroll from Woodborough on a sunny, cold and windy day. Damage to the top of the trig pillar which has lost some of its surface though not major. No view from pillar due to woods, but you don't need to go far. Shame about the nearby tip - hopefully it'll soon be full.
