Parked on the NDW and took some local paths to the TP. visible from the Gate. Hop over gate no problems. No views today as was foggy and misty.

Dead end lane leading to a reservoir. Pillar just south of gate. Relatively easy access. Looks as if it was painted a reddish brown colour at one time. Reasonable but slightly limited views to the south due to reservoir immediately to west and cabin and trees to east.

In a reservoir compound about as secure as a public park. Stepped over the squashed fence to discover this one, which is in fairly good condition. Not much of a view at the trigpoint but some pleasant countryside nearby.

Trigpoint is inside a reservoir compound but as yet no big fence to worry about. Walked footpath passing White Hall from lane to east.

Gate open & people working on site. They said that the reservoir will soon have an impregnable chain link fence round it. So if you haven't got this one, do so soon, before it becomes inaccessible.

Visited the trig point after visiting the nearby Marilyn top. The trig is still easily accessible unlike many reservoir trigs these days.

Major reservoir expansion work ongoing. Completion due June 17. Site worker gave us access through site barrier to Trig, itself enclosed within small temporary red protective fence.. Trig is within sight of gate to N and at ground level and has a stainless steel OSGB network plaque on it.Also visited Cheriton Hill, Marilyn.

The first of 2 trigs in this area. Paddlesworth is located within a water company compound; the gate is easy enough to hop over. Pillar is next to a reservoir instead of the usual where it's sited on the top. Good condition. No views (that I can remember). The Marilyn, Cheriton Hill is near by in middle of a field.

Highest point is man made on top of reservoir near trig point. Highest non man made area is in a field nearby. Local farmer gets upset by people parking or loitering in the area. Bagging Cheriton Hill Marilyn.

Plenty of room to park and gate easy to climb over. Possibly the highest point in East Kent.

The pillar, outstanding in its field !
Good nick, usual signs of weathering.

Located in the reservoir compound, at the end of dead end secluded country lane, only one gate to hop over, no private signs. Pillar is in good condition, as commented before not much in the way of views.
