Re-visited to photograph the FB etc and check on condition. No exercises taking place so nearby vedette un-manned and access easy from the perimeter road. Trig is generally in good condition, although cap is missing and centre hole open. 1 sight hole is open, other 3 sealed. Foundations are quite exposed.

Located in the middle of a field on the edge of the army ranges on the hill at Market Lavington. You can drive and park and walk across ok. The cattle seem to be using it as a scratching post, its slowly being eroded from the base.

Shouldn't really have crossed into the training area to bag this as there was a live fire exercise underway at the time - they very kindly stopped for me but were not happy. However, when I explained what I was doing THEY WERE STILL NOT VERY HAPPY. Moral of the story - at least make sure the flags aren't flying before bagging this one! Oh well, one more ticked off the list. Access is quite easy as the road here runs along the edge of the training area and the trig is easily visible 130m away in the field.

Red flags were flying and too much army traffic and security about to attempt any visit but visible from lane.

Would normally have gone to the trig, but red flags were flying and nearby vedette post was occupied by a guy who was clearly interested in what I was getting up to, so I decided that discretion was the better part of valour

Red flags not flying but the pillar was guarded by a herd of cows and their calves. An electric fence kept them penned in to an area around the trig but they looked poised to defend their young if necessary.

250m inside the range with red flags up and the range road closed so settled for the roadside view on this occasion.
