Trig in exceptionally good nick. In a lovely little bit of woodland with distant views to the West. Just the place for a Sunday stroll with the family.

Set in amongst narrow woodland, numerous paths available with obvious lead up to the trig. Good views once out of the wood including fine view to Emley Moor transmitter.

I was most impressed with this patch of deciduous woodland even on a windy wintry day such as this.

A nice spot but trig could do with a coat of paint. All sighting holes closed, plug replaced by cover. Located at the top edge of a fringe of woodland above road; easy access. Extensive views westward are now obscured by the trees.
