Excellent condition but now overhung with bushes. Nice to see a height tag.

Nice to see an intact height tag. Straightforward find, but the area is much more overgrown than shown in the OS photograph.

Nothing special about this one. This was our first stumpy one to stand on and was a bit of a challenge.

Another one that popped up on the TomTom on the way to Littlehampton for the afternoon. Parked in the gateway and this is a very little way beyond on the left of the track. Still not really got to grips with these \'non-pillar\' trigs! Me. 124m

Only my second FBM

W side of road, 4m W of gate, S side of footpath, against fence. Height tag 411.11ft; GPS & OSBM both on front (N) face of pillar, which stands quite tall, granite. Glad to see brambles/scrub cleared, being in shorts!

I bagged this when out on a bike ride so I will get a picture some other time.It wasn't the easiest to find as it was well hidden by brambles that I had to tread down.It is just in on the left if you have the road behind you.All looks well with a hight of 411.11f if my memory serves me well.

Located in the hedge, at side of footpath, completly covered with brambles, easy to locate as opposite one of the gates to the castle grounds

Found this one lurking in heavy brambles on a footpath close to the main road. It was difficult to get close enough to read the height information because of the brambles, but I believe it was 411.11 ft. Although the TrigpointingUK database shows it as having no current use, there was a GPS plate attached. A check on the OS GPS site turned up an entry for it as H1TQ0009. However, there was little information actually on the page, apart from a picture of the FBM without the brambles.
