Thanks again M&K. Block easily found under marker stones at E side of path. Presumably a replacement for the pillar TP6363 (destroyed 11/69), 30 metres away. Mild and muddy day. Extensive views into Airedale and Wharfedale.

Great find Mickandkim! Walked past this dozens of times, assumed it had been destroyed. Put white stones back after pics, partially covered with a few twigs. Now just need to find the pillar!

Had a brief look while visiting the nearby pillar. Didn't find anything but if was a soggy day so I didn't honestly look that hard

Didn't spend a lot of time looking for this as had assumed it destroyed, but see that's just speculation by previous loggers as they've not located it; OS don't record it thus. Have changed it's status to unknown.

Visited this area many times in the early 1990s when living in Otley and working in Guisley. Revisit again today with no success.

Poked around for a bit in the warm heather then thought 'Adders'. No obvious signs of this.

Had a poke about in the heather, suspect this might have been disturbed when the quarry was landscaped.

This is very close to where the pillar was. Spent some time poking about in the heather to no avail then thought I could see something over the other side of the fence. A wasted effort - not in the field and GPS indicates it is in the vegetation up the bank, probably one for the winter.

As with the adjacent pillar probably destroyed during the quarry works.
