Has to be one of the most isolated trig points in the Peak District. Visited it after some very dry weather so the trek to it from Bleaklow Stones wasn't the usual bog-hopping exercise.

Walked up from Fairholmes, past Alport Castles, along the lovely path along the edge. Bit misty, very windy, quite boggy and trig surrounded by its own little defensive moat.

from old glossop past cock hill and higher shelfstones trigpoints then back across moor to pennine way and back to glossop via doctors gate, bleaklow in good condition for time of year and walking not bad at all, just over 7 hours for the round trip.

lonely and lovely up here today.

This is probably the most remote pillar in the Peak District. Walked past Alport Castles, then back via the north and down to the Reservoirs. 12 miles! Good condition, original plug, public

Another trig passed during a run - this time a relay run. In mist so used it a navigation point. Very windy
