Picked up this trig before leaving Sheringham for the other half of the road trip - back home to Wiltshire via various trigs and county tops. A very pleasant short sunny walk just inland from the Sheringham coast and up onto Beeston Hill where excellent views can be had of the town and surrounding country. The trig is in good condition.

Found the nearby cache and then logged the pillar. Ashphalt plug replacement. Traces of paint. All sightholes closed. Concrete base exposed all round at grass level. Excellent views W towards Balkeney spit and E towards Cromer. Lovely spot on a glorious day!

I could see where I needed to get to but it took a while to find a route to drive near enough. Then a pleasant walk and a good view were the rewards.

Found whilst doing geocache GC10R9A. We saw Beeston Hill (or Hump or Bump or whatever the proper name is) featured on this year's series of Coast because it had a Y-station on it during the war. The foundations are still visible.

With the wind howling and the sea very rough I strode up this hill once again. I had last been here in 1999 when I walked this section of the coast on my walk around the Endgland and Wales coast. I was very pleased to note that the bench I sat on in 1999 was still here. I remember it becasue it has q great inscription on it. Something like 'Life is just froth and bubble'etc .... very apt for pointless hobby of trigpointing!

There are some nice views out to sea from this trig point, which is on a little hillock to the east of Sheringham.
