I finished the Peak District trig point challenge today naming now visited all 88 remaining pillars. From the outset I did not have plan but with just four left to visit, I decided to visit all four in a day and saved Shutlingsloe for the last visit. It looks fantastic from a distance with views to match in all directions from the top. I parked at Clough House for a three mile circular hike that included the summit. The pillar appears to be in generally good condition but the centre for the spider has been replaced with a plain disc.

Revisit to remove the padlocks that some lowlife moron(s) have been placing on the hooks on the top of the pillar. When I last visited the pillar back in October 2020, there was 1 padlock. I noticed from a photograph of the spider from last month, that that had increased to two. However, when I got to the pillar this morning, I found to my disgust that there were now 4 padlocks! Removed the padlocks with a bolt cutter that I had brought with me, and the pillar is now looking a lot better.

An easy high score due to its situation, great weather and fantastic views. Parked by bridge over Clough Brook sj984689. Anticlockwise route to summit. Pristine pillar with surrounding flagstones at base. Spider centre has a metal infill. A small padlock on one of the hooks. Panoramic views. A very popular venue.

You need good lungs and strong legs for this one, but it is absolutely definitely worth it for the views! Bagged this on a stunning crisp winters day, glorious sunshine glistening on the remnants of snow. The best trig location I've visited so far, but have been restricted during lockdown to venture further afield.

Parked opposite Crag Hall in Wildboarclough. Took the footpath past Banktop up to the summit of Shutlingsloe (known as Cheshire's Matterhorn!), where the pillar is situated, which involves a very steep climb to the top. Was very windy at the summit. The route to the summit from the Macclesfield Forest side is a lot easier! This was the seventh and final part of my Buxton 7 trig pillar challenge.

I helped out today at one of my running clubs fell races. The race was ran in memory of a member who tragically died in a motor bike accident. The race went through Macclesfield Forest and up/down this hill twice (it is often referred to as the "Cheshire Matterhorn", but locals call it "Shuts" - dont get the vowel wrong). Once all done and dusted, we walked a circular route from Standing Stone car park. Getting very wafty up there, but extensive views in all directions. I gift "Shuts" to his partner and son whom he left behind.

What a fantastic hill this is. 30 mins up from the CP in Wildboarclough, fantastic views in all directions and very few people about. Well named the Little Matterhorn of Cheshire. Just over the border (formed by the R.Dane) from N.Staffs but just a continuation of the Moorlands. Great view to Roaches End, Ramshaw Rocks, then Morridge and the Mermaid Inn. South to Cannock Chase, The Wrekin, Longmynd, Breidden Hills and just visible The Berwyns. SW and W to N. Wales coast and part of Clwydian Hills, Mow Cop, The Cloud, Cheshire Plain, Jodrell Bank and finally Manchester. Views north and NE are curtailed by Flash and surrounding moorlands but the Leek to Buxton road could be made out. A super day out before the drought ends.

Steep climb up here after a long walk from Macclesfield station! Plenty of geocaches to find on the way, however! The pillar stands on a flat platform of stone slabs. Plastic plug replacement. Two sight holes open, two closed. Traces of white paint. Really nice spot with great views all round.

Glorious hill, not been for ages as a deservedly popular spot but have it briefly to ourselves today. Shropshire and many of the Welsh mountains on show beyond the edges of Cheshire and Staffs.

The hill approached from Macc Forest - Nice Nosh you will be missed!

A lovely walk with our Cheshire bestie. Parked on the Wildboarclough road and walked up the paved path and down the other (very steep....I took a tumble!) side towards Shutlingsloe Farm. Absolutely loved the views from the top - had been wanting to go up there for years but never had the opportunity. Nice decorative feature on the trig :)

Parked in one of the dedicated parking bays at Macclesfield forest then simply followed the signposts. It's a good walk, fairly easy going with just a few large stone steps to negotiate. It was slightly hazy but the views were still splendid.

Parked in UU. Macc forest car park at SJ977714 and picked up the footpath South across the top of the forestry block, some spectacular view points looking down into the valley - worth getting the camera out. continued on the PROW SE to reach the stone stairway, long legs required for the first few steps !! visibility not great on the day but warm and sun breaking the clouds on occasions - been on the top a number of times but not officially logged FB/GR previously. Headed off East down into Wildboarclough aiming for Shining Tor TP via Three Shires Heads. Good spot for lunch.

Straightforward walk up from the car park in Wildboarclough, spoilt only by the non-stop rainy conditions which made the ground underfoot squelchy all the way, and reduced the views from the summit somewhat. Enjoyable walk nevertheless; would definitely be fun on a warm, sunny day (I imagine the views must be extensive and beautiful when it's totally clear). Trig in pretty good condition all-round.

Have I been transported to Switzerland? A fine Sunday afternoon stroll, but I do need to work on some circular routes again. Up and down is not on you know. Excellent views from the top, especially on this sunny day. Home via The Hanging Gate. Great beers and a Swedish ex au pair as Landlady.

Continued on to Tegg’s Nose following the route in “Peak District Trigpointing Walks” great views from here too but unfortunately no trigpoint. Much more climbing than I expected – a lot of effort for one trigpoint – but a good days walking.

From Langley village, take Clarke Lane, then walk through Macclesfield Forest [waymarked] to reach open country. Final ascent steep, but mercifully short.

I used the car park at the road junction directly north of the trigpoint. From there, I took the permissive bridleway which branches on to a permissive footpath directly to the top of Buxtors Hill and from there, a splendid walk along the ridge top to Shutlingsloe. The final steep climb had me panting a bit by the time I reached the summit. The pillar, once painted white, was in good condition apart from the missing centre plug. A plastic bung was it’s replacement. The views were awesome; you could see for miles in all directions. Pity it was hazy in the distance. On a clear, bright winter’s day they would be truly excellent. There is a stainless steel, topographic, memorial attached to a rock nearby stating “In memory of Arthur Smith a doughty fighter for footpaths and access to mountains. Erected by the Peak and Northern Footpaths Society and the Ramblers Assocn.” The pillar also has a plaque screwed to it commemorating 20 years of Remembrance Sunday visits by “Holdens Hoofers”

Easy walk (though quite steep at the top!) up this impressive peak. Quite busy on top, obviously very popular.

A very popular hill with walkers of all capabilities and its easy to understand why given to good approaches and nice shape.

I nearly didnt go for this one. Even though it was getting late in the day the heat - the heat! I parked by the bridge in Wildboarclough and headed up the track. Perseverance paid off and I eventually got to the top, and saw the fantastic views - great!

Approached from Macclesfield Forest. It was dry when we set off, but looked like we might get caught. We did, but on our way down thankfully. The pillar has a Cheshire CC footpath direction sign on it, also a small plaque commemorating 20 years of 'Holden's Hoofers'. Views started to disappear as soon as we arrived.

If your feeling fit, just 35 minutes from Trentabank Car Park. This is my favourate local hill and i have been to the summit around thirty times in the last ten years. A good path leads all the way. Excellent views today stretching from The Berwyns, Clwydian Hills, Winter Hill, Kinder Scout, The Roaches, Cannock Chase, Titterstone Clee Hill and The Wrekin.

We took the shorter but incredibly steep path up from Shutlingsloe Farm but it was worth every hard step. The views from the top are fantastic in all directions. It's in good condition and painted a rather grubby white. There's a plaque to Holdens Hoofers and a view finder just to the side of it. Plug replaced with plastic insert.

Found this one at the same time as logging the Geocache. Mist and wind disappeared just after filling in the log book for the cache. Views were really good from up there.

Weather man said it would be sunny today! As you can see it is still a bit misty and cold up here today.
