Direct climb up from NE with car parked on straight bit of road half on the verge. The two barbed wire fences were a challange as my normal style of jumping would havbe exualled a new sprain. again reasonable but not stunning view

Started initially from Sandal & Agbrigg Railway Station following the road to reach Common Lane(OS Map Exp 278) Approached fairly directly from the road through the 'bush' - trees, nettles, brambles etc a little west of where the map says 'Elms' which was a bit of a struggle, once through it was easy enough to reach the trig, the barbed wire fence is wide enough to squeeze through for the average trigger. However, further travels reveal that at the junction of Common Lane & Chevet Lane (same map) there is open access and just tramp diagonally to the left heading up the hill to reach the fence and trig (don't know where you'd park).

Couldn't get closer than 450 feet away, and not sure if there's a footpath to it or not. I may go back for another go but it was getting dark so took a couple of photos at long range and left for home.

Yes it's there on the hillside clearly visible on the left on the lane from Walton to Newmillerdam. Could not approach to log OS number as on private land, fenced off with no public rights of way to get there etc
