I embarked on what turned out to be an absolutely wonderful ten miles from Kirkby Malham and headed south via Orms Gill Green to the junction of rough metalled lanes. I crossed the (locked) field gate into the CROW trig field, and headed uphill. There were signs everywhere of cattle, but there were none in the field or on the hill top. The pillar soon came into view and commands sensational views in all directions, especially south to Pendle Hill. The trig is in a bit of a rough way sadly, with exposed footings, a chunk missing and heavy weathering, but at least it has a full set of metalwork. I returned the same way and headed north for Rye Loaf.

Visited on a 2 trig circular from the train station at Long Preston, up onto The Pennine Way to Settle (via 1st trig Hunter Bark)then right past Scaleber Force waterfall and onto Langber lane to head back. Accessed the land through a gate in the wall, easy climb up the moorside. When I set off it was glorious sunshine but I arrived at the trig in thick fog so could see nothing of the supposedly great views. Shame, but I may revisit as I really enjoyed the circular walk.

Drove along a rough Langber Lane as far as Bookilber Barn and then on foot along the green lane to reach a gate onto Newton Moor. Arrived at the top just at the same time as 'Glyn from Hellifield'. Neither of us had expected to meet any one else in a very isolated corner of the Yorkshire Dales, but had a good chat as kindred spirits. Extensive views on an overcast but clear day.

Walked up the ROW from Long Preston village which takes you onto the small area of Access Land on which the Trig is situated. A bit of a longer walk than I'd anticipated - about and hour and a half out and back and returned via Little Newton. Trig with original indented lettering plug but some slight damage to one of the corners. Good views on a glorious autumn day though a bit hazy. Nice pint of real ale back at the Maypole Inn in Long Preston

Accessible and visible. I came up to this one from Langber Lane on my way back to Long Preston from Rye Loaf. Easy wall crossing point via hurdle in wall and then followed a walked path up the hill which took me directly to the pillar. Everything in good order apart from the slight damage noted previously. With orignal type plug. A good place from which to see the surrounding countryside.

As mickandshane reported. The gap in the wall is where the ROW joins Langber Lane however if the gap ever gets fixed a little further west along Langber Lane (200 yards or so) is a wooden gate that's easy to climb and with the very faint traces of a path going directly uphill to the trig. The view today was exceptionally good.

A good walk from Hellifield where we parked up a track opposite the church. The track crosses the railway line and wanders up towards the moor. A path branches off to the right through a field occupied by Highland cattle, all of whom seemed placid enough, and then goes through a field occupied by red deer. Our Jim reckons the landowner must be Scottish. You get onto the moor via a gap in the wall then it's a bit of a slog up to the trig. Good views. Plug with indented lettering.

Visited to record FB number. The pillar was completed 21st June 1949 costing £20.12s.0d. In 1951 this marker was computed as tertiary station SD96/T34 in the Skipton secondary block. Flush bracket S5192 was levelled for height in 1954. This trig point was last maintained by the OS in May 1976.
