2nd time lucky. Needed two of us to establish the measurements and sightings as per OS sketch, but after a few minutes with bow saw removing nearby gorse, a 1 inch bolt was quickly found in rough outcrop, under an inch of soil. Left clear, surrounded by 3 stones. In middle of gorse, best entered via path from SW. Parked in field to WNW, gate was open.

Large gorse patch, best entered from SW side, found rock, spent a while digging, but too difficult to expose due to gorse roots. Access from WNW, gate was open, parked in field.

Parked in field to NW (SC 4528 8500), farm track over railway tracks. Bolt is now in a large patch of gorse. Found a trod going in from the S side, sawed down a lot of gorse, but no rock outcrops seen anywhere near the GR. Measurements not made as on my own and gorse too high. OS sketch available in T:UK wiki files. ***Revisited 1 Oct 2022 with peregrinus. Made the OS measurements, with some difficulty over high and dense gorse. Cleared gorse (handy having a bow saw in back of the car). Scraped layers of gorse needles etc down to bare rock to reveal 1" bolt.
