Still grey painted. Pleasant spot. Nice to take in three pillars on one walk without resort to transport between. Went to the England Belgium game afterwards.

The final trig on a journey including 5 from The Kiln - Belmont - Barn Hill - One Tree Hill This one definatley the favourite. The trig in fine condition with panoramic views with the chilterns visible in the north and the city in the south. Easy ascent into the suberbs to Sudbury Town station, changed at rayners lane and got the met home to watford, overall, satisfying day out trigging!

Took the tube south to Sudbury Town and walked south west through the residential area then up the hill through the golf course. Watch out for golf balls!! The pillar is resplendent on it’s cobbled plinth and is sporting a coat of Battleship Grey paint. The centre plug has been replaced with tar-mac but apart from that, the pillar is in good condition. The views are reasonable, particularly to the north and east.

Middlesex. The hill is a good viewpoint and you can see into four counties as well as Middlesex. Walked to this trig from Kingsbury via the surface block and Barn Hill. Afterwards we continued on foot following the canal to One Tree Hill Recreation Ground. Asphalt plug.

nice walk up from the canal, I was going to say I was in the area so could not resist nipping up to bag the trig but the truth is i was xmas shopping in Oxford street when a irresistible urge to rejoin the real world got the better of me,sure there are those who will argue that shopping in Oxford street is the real world and it's those looking at bits of concrete in fields that are in a all together stranger world.

Car park closed so had to park at pub. Quick sprint up the hill to arrive just as the sun was setting. Nice wintery views over west London at dusk. Anti-graffiti paint still doing its job on the TP.

Up from the canal, then down across the fields to Greenford. A lovely spot on a beautiful evening - busy with strollers, pic-nicers and others just enjoying the space.

Co-ords came up as N51 32.791' W000 19.545'with an elevation of 266ft. Weather wasn't too clear first thing but normally good views to the North and Harrow-On-The-Hill and also to the west, Heathrow and beyond.

FB Number Weather and my poor camera couldn't get a good pic of the view but at least the number was achievable.
