Now toppled, in situ. From ESE, P at junction, mapped track then unmapped ride W as per NJM. Showery day, my first time in Scotland this year. Remembering Ken 'chalky' Whyte, prolific hill and trig bagger who died 6 days ago

Fifth of 15 today, lousy weather - but that didn't matter here as no views. Instead, sense of satisfaction in finding the thing! Parked on verge just south of road junction NY2530281555. Across a field and up the farm track and at the top of the track followed the wall N looking for the ride heading W through the trees. Eventually found a metal gate in the wall, and there is a reasonably muck free (but not entirely nettle free) ride beyond that which sweeps NW round to SW and eventually to the summit clearing.

Bit of an oddity, computed same year as the adjacent trig pillar, but is it the old trig shown on the 1899 25" map? Foundations are now all above ground and the post can easily be rocked, so would be unusable as a trig - but there it is... a survivor.

Totally covered in moss. Hole in top guess that where stud should be. Bagged at same time as adjacent Grange Fell trig pillar. See that log for route.

A sort of lightweight satellite trig, standing a few metres from a normal trig pillar. Crumbling badly. Central rusty pipe hole from top but no other metalwork evident. Higher score awarded for interest value compared to standard trig nearby!

Concrete post installed 1959 at same time as pillar and with same station number NY29/010. It appears there only ever were two of these, here and at The Hass 6 miles away.
