Thirteenth of 15 today, walked down from the N through the farmyard. If there are Farming Subsidies for mud these folks won't be short of a few bob! Had no problem finding the bolt, thanks to excellent information provided below.

The only lump of concrete in the vicinity. Trying to hide under moss, but bolt is obvious.

On fence line. Block toppled on side, approx 30m along track into wood. The concrete in a block would appear to be 20cm deep. 1 inch bolt. Nicely mossy.
