Drove along road after bagging close-by Norchard Beacon trig. We knew this one wasn't visible from the road after reading comments on here. We drove into the start of the drive, saw trig and counted as a bag as homeowner was walking up his drive wondering why we were there! We drove off before he could ask any questions, slightly crashing into his hedge while reversing out.

Although its cap is missing it sits on a well kept bank lined by hydrangea adjacent to a driveway. Easiest pillar of the day probably.

Easy to find and lovely views across the bay. The first visit to this trig on the previous day was very badly timed. An angry farmer was standing in the adjacent gateway effing and blinding at his stupid sheep and dogs. We thought it best not to ask if we could take a photo of the trig point and quietly sneaked away to come back another day. Haha!

After a day of rain we thought we would go and find this pillar, the location is from Tenby go through the village of penally turn right up the ridgeway and it is a private drive on your left called oxlands. It is slightly up on the bank just as you enter the driveway. Ivy covering the flush brackets , loverly hydrangeas surrounding it. Great location.

Having visited Caldy Island trig pillar in the afternoon I walked up here through Penally for something to do in the evening. I quickly climbed up next to the pillar to admire the view and then carried on to the next trig, Norchard Beacon.

We passed this trig several times on our holiday. On the day Dad went to the trig the long grass was wet and as I was wearing trainers instead of wellies, got wet feet and trousers!

We were passing this trig so stopped to take a look. Having checked the roadside hedges it was spotted just down the driveway, high up on the left. Looks like the plaque is on the hedge side (or its missing) as I could not see it

Almost a roadside pillar being just inside a driveway entrance. For access it is necessary to climb the rather short steep banking on which the pillar stands. Pillar itself is in good condition except that the plug is missing. Nice location.
