As others have suggested this one appears to have been removed. We parked at both Whinleys Farm and Gringley Grange to have a scout around using both OS Maps and W3W to n9 avail. The last of 8 New Years Day bags and the most disappointing

As suggested previously no sign of the trig. Wooden fence getting into field very slippery. If only the person previously could have found where it went!

(3130) Parked at farm entrance and took a quick snap and that was that. Crop in field but no pillar. It had survived for roughly 68 years before being uprooted. And relatively recently at that. A shame when that happens. Annoyingly, but forecasted, the rains started up not long after this one. So put Plan B into action and spent an enjoyable couple of hours at Hemswell Antique Centre. Pillar history: Built on the 12th of October 1948, at a cost of £8 6s 6d. Last maintained by the OS in December of 1982. Marked as destroyed August 2016. FB was S4805.

Parked opposite and climbed over the gate, headed to the area the OS map was showing (didn’t know the name of it to check prior to attending) no sign or suggestion it have even been present.

Walked along field side of hedgerow looking for it, but no remains to be found. Called at Whinleys Farm, where informed farmer lives at Cowsland Farm. Drove back there to be informed by owner that farmer had moved on. Investigation stopped.

Reported missing by previous visits, so didn't bother going to exact location. Pulled into farm entrance to take a photo, couldn't see it. Update oct2022. I have been up this way on the mountain bike a few times since. No sign of the trig from the bridalway that runs in Whinnley Wood. Also no sign in the nearby mast compound.

Parked in field entrance opposite the farm entrance. I hadn't read previous bagger's logs so from the map it looked like the trig would be in the hedge. Spent 10 fruitless minutes searching through the nettles before going back to the car and downloading the logs and a few photo's from TP:UK. I then realised that the trig should be in the middle of the field and that it's not there anymore. Went back into field to make sure I wasn't imagining it and took some photo's. It's definitely gone from its original location. The only question now is what was its fate: was it moved or was it destroyed?

Did a drive by for this second trig on a walking day with my mate, Tracker Dog, around Sturton le Steeple. Parked up just W of the trig at the entrance to Gringley Grange farm, pushed through hawthorn hedge and up to trig. Some views mainly to W/SW. Maybe easier to park on access road to aerial and walk down from that.

Easily accessible and quite visible post harvest. I parked in the entance to the communications mast and simply walked along the field side of the hedge to the pillar. The damage is certainly slight. Still has an original plug.

Parked in entrance to Gringley Grange, straight over the road is a conveniant gappy bit in the hedge, then followed hedge line to trig. The damage is very, very slight. This one is not in too bad condition, I`ve seen much worse.

Easy access to this one, parking in the entrance to a farm walking along the inside of the hedge. The field has been ploughed, planted and the crop is just coming through. The pillar is intact, with the original plug [slightly-indented letters]. Slight chip on one top corner. All sightholes closed; no paint. Concrete base exposed on N/W sides. Good distant views to the N and W.
