Flail damage from the hedge cutter! Very good camouflage, sitting in the north side of the hedge. Parked on Church Lane and enjoyed a stroll up the track towards the mast. Beautiful spring green colours, blossom in the trees, hedges coming into leaf and birds twittering and singing away. Easy bag with cracking views - best of the 4 today!

Parked on Aughton Lane. Took the public right of way (PROW) from Worksop Road up to SK 47246 86420. Then accessed the trig field, where the pillar can be found next to the hedge. The top of the pillar has been damaged by a hedge cutter, leaving one of the spider arms exposed.

Parked in the village and then walked along the PROW to the phone mast. Take the left turn on the PROW and the pillar is located a short distance along, partly obscured by the hedge. Other than the mast, the area is shared with Wind turbines. The pillar looks as though it's been a fight with some heavy machinery and lost but it does retain the original centre for the spider.

With jonglew and coinea. Drove good farm track to park ~60m W of the trig. Short walk along N side of hedgerow, which is encroaching upon the pillar. There is serious flailer damage to the top section, including the bending and fracturing of one of the spider arms. Original centre cap retained, lightly indented lettering; sight holes not investigated.

(1458) Parked up down North Farm Court and then walked the public path to the pillar. As others have stated the map doesnt seem to tally with the actual route - but if you head towards the two masts and wind turbines you cant go wrong. Spotted a CBM on a old stone gatepost on the way down. Pillar situated just off the footpath but easily accessed. Hedge, and everything else, is becoming a bit wild, but the pillar isn't really obscured. Looks to be some old damage - most likely from hedge cutting - but all good really. A nice steady walk to and from this one. Pillar history: Built on the 5th of September 1947, at a cost of £4 9s 11d. Last maintained by the OS in June of 1985.

I guess there are a number of ways to attain this minor summit. I parked in the turn off left after the equestrian centre but before J31. I then walked W back down the B6067 and took the FP opposite the equestrian centre. This ran N through arable fields. The pillar is at the top of the hill and I headed for the smaller mast. Not having a map I perhaps strayed from the ROW and followed a well worn track up the hill. The pillar is sited in a hedgerow facing N towards the turbines. Lovely views of South Yorkshire and the peak district in the distance. Slight damage to one corner of pillar as previously mentioned possibly a hedge trimmer. OS cap intact. A quiet spot and a fine day, what could be better!

Surrounded on three sides by a hedge, fortunately the fourth and visible side contained the flush bracket.

Easily accessible and quite easy to find in hawthorn hedge. A joint visit with Carole. We came up the track from Aston passing the cemetery and New South Farm. Pillar is to be found in the hedge just to the east of the mast. The flush bracket is on the north side. Everything in good order. Original indented plug. Good all round views from this realatively elevated location.

Should have checked this website first as I searched all round the tall mast before looking round the smaller mast, and more obvious trig position, a little further south. Trig within hedge.
