Extremely muddy and slippery walk from Tide Mill in Newhaven. Trig point is in a horse paddock so photo taken from other side of fence, but relatively close.

After visiting Tarring Neville, walked south east to Denton. Reached pillar from lane behind residential area. In a horse paddock. Over a gate, waved to someone looking after the horses. Only in the field long enough to take photographs. Good views to south east. Second attempt at this one.

Short walk up from houses on Brdleway . The trig stands in the middle of a horse paddock. Several young ladies working cleaning out and weeding field, so ask if I could go and take photos. I was turn down, not possible because of horses, too dangerous, the owner wasn't there to ask permission. W.B.L.

In paddock, newish high fencing around the phone mast. Looks hard to access, but a gate on the bridleway leads to a second gate where the paddock can be entered. Spoke to a chap who had been fencelaying on the land & he was happy to give access.

On Street parking in Denton area of Newhaven, easy walk up to trig. It was in a house field surrounded by high fencing, quick jump of the gate. Water trough been positioned right next to it.

Closest trig to hotel so had to be done on way back to airport. Parked in Mount Road, then walked up Palmerston Road and took the road up to the trig field. Through gate into horse pasture. Quick bag.

The trig sits in a paddock with easy access. Parked on Fairholme Rd (unadopted) and walked up Crest Rd (also unadopted), over field gate and into the field. Pillar retains an original top cap, raised lettering; RHS sight hole not determined due to close proximity of a water trough, the other 3 holes are sealed. Extensive views S & E.

Viewed a few meters away from the path as the paddock this sits in looked clearly private and had some horses in it. Pretty easy to find - the telephone mast is a good guide. Not the greatest views due to nearby trees.

Found after walking the Denton to Norton geocaching series on a blistering hot day. A cheeky walk across the horse field from the gate to take a couple of photos.

Caught train from Lewes to Seaford and walked back. Easy trig to bag. 'dog walker path skirts the field' and path throguh wheat to trig point. Also possible to park just to the west side and use large gap to gain trig.

Steep bit of road to bike up, then on to rough track. Well used unofficial footpath leads almost to pillar.

Easy find from housing estate - walked up track from W to masts, TP sitting slightly squat in field just behind, in vgc wth original plug. Field newly planted but managed to skip there and back before dog walkers - and there was lots of evidence of dogs ! - appeared. A very grey morning with minimal views to the S Downs.

I struck lucky as it looked like the crop had recently been harvested and access was easy. It is possible to drive all the way up to this one with the last bit being on unmade road and track.

Quite a bit harder to get to than the picture below, it is now only just proud of the crop (could be nasty if the farmer forgets its there during harvesting!)

The field has a crop of pollinating rape seed oil in it so hayfever sufferers beware. It is not at the highest point either which could be misleading. Plug with raised lettering.

Located in the corner of a field with a well defined short cut, past the mount, across the fields corner.
