Left the car on the Old Road in Middlestown and created a 5 mile circuit, taking in 20+ benchmarks and my last bag up the hill to the trig. One of those easy ones, nothing to it!

Very straightforward - parked on Wood Mount, and a quick walk down Smithy Lane bridlepath and the pillar is on the left (north east) side of the track opposite the reservoir gate. It's a bit scruffy - paint flaking, with a dog crap bin for company - but it's still intact with an original cap. Views not bad. I returned the same way.

(2064) Parked on the main road, and then followed Smithy Lane bridleway down to the pillar. All good, though it could do with a tidy up in regards to it's paint job. Pillar history: Built on the 21st of May 1937, at a cost of £7 15s 3d. Last maintained by the OS in May of 1989.

Good companion for yesterdays trip to Silverdale colliery trig...this one is right next to another pit emblem with the National Museum down the road. Bit of a maze of A roads wandering across the moors from the wonderful Emley mast. Rare to find a little well walked lane near loads of houses which is so clean and feels looked after, a glorious contrast of the village and town scape out to Wakefield and the eastern cargo ports/distribution warehouses and power stations, whilst to west, pretty old Pennine farmland, the mast, the moors, skylarks singing by the smart little hillside estates. Could do with having the bin a little further away from the trig though... Afterwards the Hepworth museum in Wakefield - more beautiful pottery and fab photography collection. Sighting of the museum is superb as the hail storms descend...

There's a handy parking space directly opposite the trig. The OS 1994 list gives the FB no as A1748. This is Dodman Point near St Austell in Cornwall, which we visited on 30.12.04. Painted white, plug with indented lettering.

30th anniversay of surviving 300 shotgun pellets in the belly from 9 feet across the landing. Nice peaceful anniversary. At this time 1970 I was prob still under sedation following life saving surgery. Numerologically this is also my son Jamie's 85th birthday trig. I'll be long gone before 1/7/2084!! Wonder what the world will be like in 2084 100 years on from Orwell??

This is my local trig point 200yds from home first visited in 1983 when we moved up here to Middlestown and passed it umpteen times since Good views to the NE. GPSr gives WGS84 Datum as N53 38.666 W01 36.559 and using British Grid and Ord Survey Datum give OS grid as SE 25930 16509 which correlates to location shown on 50,000 and 250,000 OS maps.
