Spotted this one on the way home from dropping a friend, Barbara, at Manchester airport. It's been a long time since I logged a pillar and with a lay-by close, it was too good to miss. I had no GPSr with me so I couldn't record a position but I don't suppose it's moved very far!! Looks like it's had a fresh coat of white paint recently. Centre plug replaced with a plastic bung but all other metal work in place.

The third and final whitewashed trig has the best view with 4 reservoirs below. The only downside is the closeness of the Woodhead Pass. Have walked over from Dead Edge End via the Woodhead junction and tracks, a clear trod splitting off the footpath to the top after a boggy roadside patch. Continued back via FP to Winscar with the continuous chorus of curlew and lapwing that has accompanied us all day. KF

Starting from Langsett Reservoir overflow car park, completed a circular walk via Dunford Bridge. As I walked up the snow road that runs alongside the A628 I took the short detour to the trig point and the amazing views towards Windleden Resevoirs and beyond. Due to erosion the sub base for the trig point was partially exposed but it was otherwise in good condition. A commemorative plaque has been 0laced at the base and reads - DGD 1932 - 2017 WHATISIT WHOISIT WHEREISIT.

Walked from Dunford Bridge Station on a circular route around Thurlstone Moors. Driving rain and sleet in a strong, bitter wind walking south-west along the snow road to the trig meant it wasn't enjoyed as much as it might be on a different day - so-called waterproof gloves filled with water etc. The mist did clear slightly as we reached the top, enabling us to briefly appreciate that the view could be lovely in the right conditions!

Circular walk from Dunford Bridge via Langsett. It was a very short section of the Peak District Boundary Walk and transport complications kick in for the next few sections. Stayed on PRoWs and less than 5 minutes off piste to bag this trig pillar. If you could erase the A628 (Woodhead Pass) the views would be of the finest. A628 must be one of the worst roads in the UK. This trig is gifted to JK who a week ago set a record for completing the Big Three Rounds and cycling between them. Chapeau.

Bonus trig! After a day's walking (with 3 trigs bagged along the way) I noticed this trig as I drove home over the Woodhead pass, just a couple of hundred yards from the road. Funnily enough i commuted over the pass for a year (many moons ago) and never noticed it. Parked in the layby, through the gate and an easy walk for some fantastic views.

Trig Pillar number 150 and a good pick. I wanted to ascend the nab so parked at Winscar reservoir car park and followed the Barnsley boundary walk then to the pillar, which is in good condition. The rain cleared and the views were great, the monsters of Bleaklow and Black Hill still with residual snow on them, West Nab, Dead Edge and more. I looked for home, some 28 miles back down the A628 and could just make out the now dormant Ferrybridge C framed behind the less than dormant wind farm at Thurlstone. My last pillar was Flamborough, what an astonishing county of variety Yorkshire is, what a fantastic hobby this is too. Next target 200 then...

Third and last trig of day, walked from Dead Edge trig via stump of Lady Cross. A628 very busy with thundering traffic. Trig easily seen from distance, so easily found. Good views, had last cuppa looking up Longdendale Valley towards the Cheshire Plain. Back to Dunford, great day's walking!

From the Windle Edge / Winscar Reservoir car park SW along the road to PROW at SE148014. A notice indicated that the PROW was closed for upto 6 months for health and safety reasons due to flooding. Decided to ignore this and carried on across the hillside. Could see something atop the hill in the distance but needed the zoom lens on my camera to confirm it was indeed a trig pillar. It wasn't long before I discovered why the path had been closed - three of the four sleepers spanning the stream at the bottom of the valley had collapsed into the water. Gingerly crossed the stream using the one remaining, ice covered sleeper and then followed the PROW across to Woodland Clough and up towards the A628 before taking one of several faint trods onto the top of South Nab. Pillar is in good condition with plastic cap although its white coat is starting to weather and the base is exposed by 6" or so. Expansive but bleak 360 views.

Spotted as I was driving back along the A628 from a pleasant afternoon out in Glossop. I decided to trudge through the snow from the lay-by, expecting it to be a quick 2 minute job. Big Mistake! Snow was more than knee-deep in places and I was in a pair of trainers!! Stumbling everywhere with wet feet and jeans, I finally made it to the trig which had very little snow arround it. Great views for miles in each direction, nicely whitened by the recent snowfall. Trig in great condition. Used my own (very deep) tracks to get back to the lay-by in one piece!
