Walked in from the free car parking at Scawgill Bridge to the west climbing the very steep Broom fell first. Very easily found the block under the shallow stones only gloves required for this one. Big 3 inch brass bolt in good condition. Also an OS benchmark rivet found which corresponds to old maps positioning.Very busy on the tops today excellent panoramic views. Another super find CJO and bagging assistant.

On round of Wainwrights from Winlatter Visitor Centre: Winlatter - Brown How - Graystones - Broom Fell - Lord's Seat - Barf. Only saw a couple of other walkers. Super views of clouds skidding past Skiddaw. Had a look round for block, but didn't probe. There's exposed bed-rock on summit so why a buried block?

Looked where JG's GPS indicated it would be but no luck. Not east when there is a group of people standing on top of the spot.

Hoped erosion might help but no. Poked a bit but need metal detector and spade for any chance. Great area with great views.

Rocky ground but some turf, GPS indicated approx 1m NW of old metal boundary fence post. Spent 10mins or so prodding the ground without much hope and even less success.

Couldn't see it. Climb worth it for the good views. A large metal post marks the summit
