Heading east out of Gainsborough past industrial estate to south of roundabout, at next junction on left to north signposted for Gainsborough Golf Club pillar is visible through gap in hedge about two hundred metres across the field. Pulled over on side of lane, walked along field edge to pillar. Straightforward access, bit wet in places. Flat farmland views. Spider and cap in place.

Third of 3 trigs in the Gainsborough area today with the kids. Easy access along field boundary. Itchy.

(239) And one more before heading off home. The haul bagged today has now seen me complete trig points that stretch from one side of Lincolnshire to the other. Parked up by the entrance to the oil well site. Asked permission at nearby Belt Farm to visit the trigpoint, which was readily given. No crop growing in the field at the minute, so getting to the Pillar is pretty easy and straight forward. Pillar history: Built on the 17th of October 1948, at a cost of £9 6s 9d. Last maintained by the OS in October of 1980.

A joint visit with Carole. We parked at the road junction to the south and simply followed a hedge side track which took us directly to the pillar. In good condition and still retains an original plug.

Easy access, but a little exposed at the pillar, as Father Ted says. The top of this one appears a little concave, something I have not noticed on other pillars. The nearby oil well seems to be a dumping ground for old nodding donkeys and other paraphernalia.

TP6354 Belt Farm is beyond.

Accessed up the hedge line quite easily and met no one. Only in view of the house for the last 10 yards - at this time of year.

In between two arable fields at a place where the hedge is no more! All intact with original plug [slightly indented letters]. Some paint visible. General agricultural views which, on a rather dreary day like this, didn't amount to much.
