Left from Campsite and followed eskdale trail past muncaster castle entrance - crossed road and then followed the trail all the way up to the Trig - great walk and easy - you can see the trig way before you get up to it which helps - views spectacular and very enjoyable

My penultimate Marilyn completed in fine company with some pedigree walkers encouraging me up the hill in blustery but dry conditions. Parked at the Muncaster Castle car park that was empty when we left it and full by the time we returned some 90mins later. Found the trig, then a cache then went east some 500m to the Marilyn top before retuning.

My friends companion from S Wales is on his final 2 Marilyn's and both are in the Lakes. I joined them for a night at The Bridge Inn, Santon and revisited this pillar (OW). A fine stone pillar with far reaching views up the Eskdale Valley. Alas, I couldn't celebrate his last Marilyn - Hard Knott. Time was not on my side. So Muncaster is gifted to FT, whom I have always admired for his quirkiness. Long may it last.

KD Ascended to the trig along ridge footpath from NE via Ross's Camp (slipped a bit off one leg) not realising this bypassed the actual highest point. There is better path to the N of the actual FP across the centre of the moss. Descent via Muncaster Tarn and Bridleway back to Eskdale Green PO. Sunny and warm.

Fair gasping for air on this thundery humid day - staying over in Tebay but the weather so apocalyptic sounding make a trek to the coast. A lovely wild spot - Wasdale Fells becoming smoky with cloud the sand bars of Ravenglass below us. Black Coombe sweltering in a greying haze at out side. Marilyn.

Revisit: Stone built pillar in good condition. Spider retains an OS centre cap with shallow engraved letters which looks suspiciously like it has been repatriated from another pillar. Flush bracket faces NW, compass measurement 297°. All four sight holes open, pillar bolt partly visible but for plastic bottle and other debris wedged inside. Full 360° panoramic view.

An excellent view point for the Scar Fells and more,and with very little effort to achieve,only 750 feet of ascent from Fell Lane.

Muncaster Fell summit and Trig point. A fantastic view point for the Sca Fells for such little effort.

I took advice from Peter Frost-Pennington, TVI FMD Carlisle and General Manager of Muncaster Castle, so I walked all the way along the ridge to 174 metre point before returning to the car park as time was not an issue on a rest day from FMD which I left on 30/05/2002.

Approached from SW via mapped RoW (Fell Lane). Visited to record FB number. The pillar was completed in September 1949 costing £11.4s.0d. In 1952 this marker was computed for triangulation as secondary station NY11/19 in the Workington block. Flush bracket S5763 was levelled for height in 1956. This trig point was last maintained by the OS in November 1976. Stone built pillar. No photos taken.

Caught the train up the valley then walked back over the Fell, then footpath through grounds of Muncaster Hall back to Ravenglass station car park. Super day out.

Late start from Ravenglass due to delayed trains into and out of Barrow. Carried on to Irton Pike and finished imn the dark at Ravenglass. A good day
