2nd of the day. I approached from the West, along PRoW along the north perimeter of Tunstead Quarry. I had to hop over barbed wire fence next to a wall. The pillar looked in fine fettle. Somebody had left a painted rock on the top so I photographed then took it with me to the next one.

Ten trigs bagged on the way to and around Buxton with a total of thirteen miles hiked for the day. This was the fourth of the day. Parked near main road through Wormhill near the bend for a short walk to the pillar with good views of the surrounding. It appears to be in good condition albeit the original centre for the spider has been replaced and the foundations are partly exposed.

1/2 Had a pedal out to this trig, looks in good condition and stands proud. Access is by a gate on a lane running S and then a small pull up Bole Hill. Popped down to Tunstead afterwards to see the plinth and plaque where the civil engineer James Brindley was born. I give the two trigs today to all the people who have "hoovered up" all their local trigs and have nowhere to go.

Out walking with my mates Tracker Dog and Rubber Ball. We couldn't find the trig, the weather was wet with some mist but not so bad not to see the whole hill. We spotted the likely tumulus and then the possible base of the trig. Am I the first to report it missing? If so, what's happened to it?

Parked in Millers Dale then headed West beside the River Wye before walking up through Chee Dale Nature Reserve to emerge onto a road. Followed this road round into Wormhill, taking a short detour to get some pics of St Margaret's Church (it has an unusual shaped spire). Returning to the road I continued North to pick up the Pennine Bridleway heading West past Old Hall Farm. Shortly after the bridleway descends across the fields I took the PROW heading SW towards Tunstead. The PROW passing to the South of the farms was so overgrown as to be impenetrable so I continued along the farm tracks, eventually emerging onto the road a little further North than intended. Headed North to a T-junction then turned left where a metal gate a short distance further on to the right allowed for convenient access into the field. Finally it was a case of a short walk up the grassy slope, scaring off a few sheep along the way. Pillar can be found to the left of the exposed rock and is in good condition with 3/4 sight holes open. Ground is eroded around the base and cap has been replaced. Pleasant if unremarkable views spoilt only by quarry workings to the SW.

Parking to the south west then up through the sheep, not on right of way as far as I could tell, but only one gate to climb over, then over dry stone wall and barbed wire, no problem as very quiet. Pillar good condition some nice views if you look away from the "works" to the south west.

We left Broady battling a slow start in their response to Dove Holes innings and drove to the rail bridge below Hardybarn. From there anti-clockwise through Tunstead. This was the May heatwave so a pleasnat trip, despite two herds of frisky heifers. No-one about of course, even in the cement works. Am I alone in thinking this reminds me of some sort of apocalype/remote planet film while the whole shebang is operated by one man? Still, over two hours later and the cricket team had put on less than a hundred. Heading for defeat. But a turnaround. Fifty in the 20 mins since we came back, then a six claimed victory. Well, well, well.
