Zapped. From the co-ordinates Memory Map places it just below the brow of the hill and where the new-ish housing is. Before the housing was built you would have had a decent view of the urban valley below. NCOF!

Not here anymore, although I can remember seeing it while driving up Overthorpe Road long before the houses were built on Sandiway Bank. If memory serves me, it was painted white. If you look at the satellite image on Google Earth you can see a white blob in the garden of the house at the junction of Hillgarth and Overthorpe Road which is about the correct location for this Trig. The satellite image was taken in 2003 maybe the Trig was removed sometime after this?

Trig is long gone.

Hill Top Hill Top Farm Day Nursery is about where the trig might have been.
Hill Top Or was it a bit lower down around the Hillgarth area?

Gone to housing; alongside a busy road. Peered through fence into gardens but couldn't identify exactly where it isn't. In its day, the trig would have had views across the Calder valley towards Ossett.

Hill Top is a newish house with fine view N&E, but gr implies a newish estate just downhill on E side of rd. No sign of TP.

There's a house built on top of where this one should be.

Another missing one and it is not shown on OS maps dating back to 1993. It is shown on a 1:25000 Pathfinder OS map in 1987 but there is now a newish housing estate in its place, presumably built sometime between 87 and 92

Very white pillar on grassy bank above road at Combs, behind new housing development, with good views over Dewsbury.
