2" bolt. 10 cm deep. No views. Jonglew's 2m square search grids still evident on ground. Left this one with a box of branches surrounding together with 2 upright posts.

More difficult to locate as nothing to reference it to and GPS not quite so accurate in woodland. Marked out a 2m x 2m square with branches and probed it - nothing (except a blister). Moved the square 2m E and hit it straight away! 2" brass bolt. Re-covered after photographing.

Well done jonglew on being the first to find this one. The site of the trig is amongst some trees close to a ridge top path within a wooded public space in the south of Salisbury.There was no sign of the trig on the surface and it was not revealed by clearing the leaf litter on the ground. The site was reached by means of the footpath along the top of the slope from the Old Blandford Road in the east. There are glimpses of the western suburbs of the city through the trees but the surrounding vegetation prevents a view from the trig. Nearby clearings allow a fine view to the north over the city and its magnificent cathedral to the downs beyond.
