Parked at White Down car park tq115494. FOC. Well defined track leads to reservoir. Pillar located outside the compound fence on southwest side. Spider top intact. Pillar is sinking as the base of the flush bracket is at ground level. Think the flush bracket is facing north. A concrete block inscribed E. S. W Co is situated about 15m north west of the trig point.

From car park about half a mile north of the escarpment edge, head south west for about 250 metres then left at a track, past an enormous fallen tree on the left with a broken trunk, quite dramatic, turn right at next track passing a stack of logs, the reservoir is on the left. Fortunately the pillar is outside the compound. Continue just past the reservoir, the pillar is on the left in the brambles looking very sad covered in moss. Vegetation slight but still annoyingly scratchy. No views.

Walked from car park north east of trig. Not too easy to find, hiding in trees west of reservoir.

A quick stop off on the way home after walking the Lovelace Bridges. Walked up from car park, pillar easy to spot at this time of year.

Thank you to previous concrete chasers who provided advice to go off track by the square cable markers. Without you, I might have missed this mossy pillar among all the nettles. Bagging this trig at the height of July is not recommended. Car park was free and nearby, but extremely busy - hot, sunny Saturdays also not recommended!

Pillar in good condition though heavily covered in moss. Parked in the White Down car park and it was a 5 minute walk up to the pillar. Pillar is located next to a covered reservoir.

Covered in moss, surrounded by undergrowth, and someway off the path it had a very tranquil feel to it. Also on the small side so could stand on top of it ... so that challenge was achieved for another year.

Next to the reservoir, an easy walk from the car park to the E. Went on to Dunley Hill, the top of which was slightly harder to locate!

Found it thanks to tips from others. If you go to the front of res enclosure and walk upwards you will find it by turning off at the concrete markers. As others have said it is covered in moss and has original plug.

Arrived at the car park nearby but couldn't go into it due to height barrier. Camper van over 2m, so parked carefully in the road. Nice walk up to the trigpoint. Activated the trig for Worked All Britain amateur radio net.

The final day of our 6 day hill & trig bagging tour of SE England. Parking nearby in a forest car park, the trig is not located on public paths, but the whole wood seems to be common access land with a multitude of paths. Short distance from the trig is the HuMP, Dunley Hill. Pillar is in good condition, if a little mossified, plug intact. No views due to forest location.

There's a line of concrete markers with ES WCº probably making a pipe from the reservoir? If you look back to the reservoir where they cross the track, they point roughly to the trig.

Set off up the path from the nearby carpark. Got to the reservoir compund and assumed it might be in there. Only with the help of a passing dog-walker did I locate it! It's very moss covered but with traces of paint. Original plug with slightly-indented letters. Sightholes closed. No views whatsoever.

Located in a wooded area. GPS lost interest due to heavy tree presence. A search eventually located the pillar close to a reservoir. Nearby is a square pillar marking waterboard property.

I took up skiing because of this place! Walked a length of the Downs in deep snow after a job interview. Saw tracks and was inspired. Middle of a rather lovely wood used for big orienteering events. As a confirmed hillbasher who is not supposed to appreciate this sort of stuff, I have to admit that there is some cracking walking in Surrey.
