Parked at the end of the lane for Knowhead farm, plenty of room. No one around to ask for permission. Walked up the lane, through the farm and along a muddy track which leads right to the trig point. Good views to the west.

Approached this trig from the Campsie direction, took a rough footpath under trees, thence up a large field walking in the tractor tyre furrows through young green growth to reach a tree covered knoll. Then in a north-easterly direction to find pillar beside a hedge. The earth here is a dark reddish colour,reminding me of Cornwall's soil.
