A long walk out of King's Lynn was required along the river Ouse and out towards the wash. The pillar was tricky to access owing to a barbed wire 'prison' but I made it in the end. A lovely summer day though with 'big skies'.

Admiralty Point. Dramatic skies at Admiralty Point.
Admiralty Point. Looking east Admiralty Point is located on a former sea defence wall.

Parked in the car park near Onger Hill Cottages. Walked along an embankment from there up to the pillar at Admiralty Point. Climbed over a fence at the end of the embankment in to the enclosure where the pillar is situated

(2066) I'd tried for this one when I was last in area (Oct 2020 - just prior to lockdown) but was searching in the wrong area, and hadn't realised my mistake until much later. Making amends today. Parked at the carpark at the end of Ongar Hill. Steady enough walk along the embankment, which gave me wet feet and trouser bottoms for the rest of the day, to the pillar. Plenty of sheep with lambs in the field, so viewed the pillar from the fence only. FB partly submerged, so the number wasn't really readable. A gouge/scrape runs the width of the pillar just above the FB. All else appears good. But nice to have ticked this one off, even if I couldn't get as close as I would have liked. Pillar history: Built on the 27th of June 1953, at a cost of £24 10s 0d. Last maintained by the OS in August of 1979.

Caught bus from King's Lynn to Sutton Bridge then walked back via River Nene East Bank then along Peter Scott Walk. Access from coastal embankment fairly easy along rather muddy elongated field. Had to clear the flush bracket with a bit of stick.

Last pillar of our norfolk holiday, disappointing way to finish, expected sea views and a nice easy track from the car park got neither.

Parked at CP to SE for short walk to trig

KF This trig used to be on a footpath which traversed the old sea bank but appears to have been diverted on to the new sea bank. We parked in the road end car parking area and as there was no trace of the old footpath then walked out to the new sea bank and followed it round to the spur which juts out from the old sea bank at the trig. A stile here gives access to the drain side which can be followed to below the trig.

Parked just above the car park, as it was flooded. Walked down a very overgrown bank. Good job it is November. Had to cross a barbed wire fence but trig is easy to find.

Hi, I'm Big Fish and I am the main Trigpointer and Geocacher from the Fishteers. I now have my own name and so I am back logging all the Trigs that I found with the Fishteers, I am logging the find on the same day that I found it with the Fishteers.
