Bolt was under the carin, at W edge. Slightly moved the cairn to leave the Bolt exposed. 3 witness rivets also noted on surrounding rocks; 2 at approx 1m distance to NW and SW of the bolt; the third at approx 2m distant to the E.

2 inch bolt at W edge of cairn on S top. Looks slightly misshapen due to how it's mortared, but undamaged. 17 mile high level circuit of Thirlmere, mainly Birketts plus a few Synges. This one's a Dewey 500er, revisited for the Bolt.

Bolt just visible at edge of cairn

Found cairn at summit but didn't want to dismantle it to see bolt as still had a long day left on the hills & needed to press on.
