The ultimate in lazy triggging. You can drive right up to it, it painted whiote so you can't miss it, and there's even a parking/turning space opposite!

Found whilst geocaching in the area. Had to dodge the dog muck to get to the trig. Shame I didn't know that there is GB3WU here. Should have brought my handheld.

Bagged while doing Rudolphs roundabout ramble - good to see it has been used as part of geocache as well as a trig point!

From Overton just walk up the road adjacent the sports field on the left and just before the aerial mast you'll find this well kept trig.

Excellent trig just by side of road and easy to find. I was too early to watch the cricket.

There's a handy parking space directly opposite the trig. The OS 1994 list gives the FB no as A1748. This is Dodman Point near St Austell in Cornwall, which we visited on 30.12.04. Painted white, plug with indented lettering.

This is my local trig point...200yds from home and is used as part of the Rudolphs Roundabout Rambles cache... You may think Windswept/Browsers's photos helps you but not really!!! GPSr gives WGS84 Datum as N53 38.666 W01 36.559 and using British Grid and Ord Survey Datum give OS grid as SE 25930 16509 which correlates to location shown on 50,000 and 250,000 OS maps.
