Very pleasant stroll up from Dyke. Lovely view point. Bolt is a straightforward find. There is another mark 3m S - looks like an OS Pivot - could it be the old trig marked on early maps?

An older mark?

3" bolt obvious at highest point of slabby outcrop 18m W of tower. Close to p30m summit so 3 for the price of one

Bolt on the highest rock ~15m east of the tower. the tower has a similar ambiance to that of Hospice of Hampsfell (TP7527). Good views across to Ravenglass and Muncaster castle.
