This was an enjoyable start to the day - an easily reached pillar on top of a large rocky outcrop behind a water-filled quarry. Loses a point for the vandalised toposcope - would have been nice if it still had its plate on top. However, the pillar itself is in good nick, reachable from a set of steps up the side of the outcrop, enjoys a great view, and has easy parking in a nearby layby. A great start to a fun day's bagging.

From village of Markfield, first attempt was along lane west of the church to last house then directly north uphill but that went through someone’s back garden as they pointed out to me when I walked up their driveway. Was directed back to the church. From there footpath went north uphill onto a nature reserve. Followed path uphill to highest point. Overlooks disused quarry to north and M1 to south and west. Good views. A few feet to the south west is a toposcope which no doesn’t have a plaque, it probably did at one time. There is an information board about Hill Hole Quarry nearby.

Parked on a road called 'The Green'. Took the footpath from there, that heads first north, then west, up to the pillar at the summit of Markfield Hill. The site overlooks Hill Hole Quarry and there is also a toposcope at the summit

(2272) Left the car at the church and took the short walk from Mill Hill Lane to the pillar. Which is in pretty good condition. The original centre cap is missing though, and has been filled in. Nearby is a toposcope, and thanks to the weather today it was of no real use. Still, the mist was finally shifting, so had a little bit of a view from this one. Nice! Pillar history: Built on the 9th of October 1938, at a cost of £4 7s 7d. Last maintained by the OS in June of 1978.

Bagged after meeting family for a picnic in nearby Bradgate park. Left the car in residential street and followed our noses up the hill via a network of paths, past allotments. Good views. Hot hot hot day, car temperature gauge showing 35 degrees. This is my 100th extant pillar. Collected a carrier bag of rubbish from the top, mostly drink cans. Short scramble up the rocks to the outcrop which looks to be slightly higher than the trig. Itchy.

re-visit. A much better day to stand and look around than my first visit: now its warm and sunny, then it was a cold December day with a strong wind and I barely stopped. Watched three lads squeeze through the safety fence around the quarry lake where a element had been removed, but the fourth was of more generous dimensions and he had many attempts to get through before he could join them.

I've been wanting to visit this trig point for a while. Set on an outcrop of igneous rock in Leicestershire in the long disused Hill Hole Quarry. Park in a layby opposite the entrance gates to the Nature Reserve. The old quarry is water-filled and sensibly fenced off. The pillar is very easily seen on the outcrop and attained by some simple steps adjacent to a toposcope. A pity that it was so misty because the views from this lofty position take in the Cotswolds, Clent Hills, Cannock Chase to the South and West. The rock type quarried is NOT granite. Even a lay-geologist would spot that the rock contains much less quartz than granite and is dark in colour. That said it is supposedly an intermediate igneous rock diorite. However the main feldspar mineral is pink - suggesting orthoclase feldspar rather than plagioclase which would be the main feldspar in a diorite. The feldspar is pink stained plagioclase. The rock type is named Markfieldite because it is so unique. It is in fact a porphyritic quartz micro-diorite. It's quartz content used to suggest it was 'syenitic'. It is Pre-cambrian in age and forms laccolithic intrusions in the Charnwood and Nuneaton areas. Quarried for roadstone, kerbstones and roads 'sets' or cobbles in its day. Certainly worth a visit.

Persuaded my wife to let me have a 10 minute diversion off the M1, but I was flying blind. All I remembered was that the trig was just above the church.Things didn't go well as I aimed for the radio mast and ended up at a dead end. Running out of time I made the mistake of asking the grumpiest man in the village for directions and did well not to get hit. At the last minute found a helpful couple who pointed me up Mill Hill Lane. A quick jog got the job done, but on the hottest day ever in the UK, that was no mean feat

Started the day at Billa Barra car park, walked to Bardon Hill then Charnwood. Retraced my steps to Ulverscroft Farm from Charnwood then past Chitterman Hill Farm. Some long stretches of tarmac unavoidable on this route. Great views from all these Leicestershire trigpoints. Wish all the counties had such good footpath signage and concern for walkers. Markfield trigpoint was a pleasant surprise seemed to appear from nowhere as I climbed from the centre of the village. Area well looked after, great views but I never escaped from traffic noise all day.

Great location with interesting rock shapes left by quarrying nestled around the back of the village. Parked by the church and walked up through the nature reserve. Distant views a bit hazy. Now the techie bit for those with a radio telecoms background. My usual Bluetooth GPS receiver (BT-308) that I use with my phone running the great gpsj.eu software would not get a fix, I used my old original eTrex which isn't as accurate. When I dropped down hill a bit the BT-308 worked again, walk back up hill and watch it drop off. I think the nearby cell base station (see my photo) must have been causing receiver blocking, the eTrex is obviously better made.

The Trig Point with Cell Site Behind This picture shows the trigpoint with the nearby cell site behind. I think it was signals from this site on a similar frequency that prevented by GlobalSat BT-308 Bluetooth GPS (on top of the trig) working properly.

As this one is just off a commuting route of mine it’s a surprise I have not visited it before. The trig and surrounding nature reserve looked great on this summer’s evening. There are a lot of information boards around and I found the one describing the history of the quarry quite moving as my grandfather also worked in a granite quarry, in North Wales, as a sett maker and succumbed to silicosis.

Quite a nice little pillar, like the nearby Bardon Hill on the edge of a quarry, this time disued. Good paths lead up towards the pillar.

Good views from the top of this disused quarry and plenty of paths up from the village below. Part of the quarry is filled with water which looks quite impressive. Plug with indented lettering.
