Parked on verge on roadside to north east of pillar. Over stile into field, there was a sign warning of a bull in the field, didn’t see one. Uphill to south. At ridge footpath to west wasn’t obvious, another stile into next field. After about three hundred metres reached another stile which was flooded. Looked around south side of tree line and spotted pillar about fifty metres further west, didn’t have to negotiate the icy flooded stile. Cap plugged. Limited views due to freezing fog.

Parked roadside to WSW (SO 9604 5990). RoW all the way, numerous stiles. Pillar sits metres off the RoW in a pasture. Original centre cap retained, deeply indented lettering; rear sight hole open. Minimal farmland views.

Drove into farmhouse from the road to the north. Guy came out of house to find out what I wanted and when I ssid to survey the pillar said he'd take me there. Dave Partridge had been there a long time and on checking when pillar was built in June 1946 found it was just 3 weeks after he was born. FB faces east

Trig is in great condition, can be picked up on a lovely circular walk, just off the public footpath, gate is usually unlocked so easy to get through, nice views of the countryside.

Parked on the road to the north by a gate with just enough room to park and followed the path due south and then east. The footpath fingerpost had fallen down in the field and it is not easy to locate access as previously reported. Note, access invoves driving through a number of fords so access could be tricky after heavy rain.

This one has been sitting taunting us for ages. Despite the wet ground we finally made log. Walked up from Middle Hollowfield's Farm, along the ridge, then north past the fish ponds to the road by the ford. Thankfully there is a pedestrian bridge as we couldn't have gone through the ford, even in wellies. Very wet and muddy all along the route. Me, Mum 56m

Mum and me at the trig - I forgot the GorrillaPod! Standing in the mud and trying to get us, the trig and a hint of view in without the gorilla pod. Failed on most counts!

Parked in lane to north having been warned of the lack of footbridges. Accessed the PROW which runs due south to ridge line. Sign post and footbridge/stile is not obvious from the road as the hedges are overgrown. Turned R along ridge to TP. White! - Garth's been. Good views again to the Malverns. How pleasant Worcestershire is. Church steeple of Bradley Green easily seen.

After reading previous logs I approched from the north, to avoid the muddy fields. Footpath south from minor road 300m east of the track to Hill Farm, follow the hedge to a line of trees, turn right pillar in about another 300m. I painted the pillar white.

approached from the S a real mess of missing bridges and new tracks off the PROW took a while to orient myself before finally getting back on track. If repeating this take the W most PROW and follow the track then immediately turn R after crossing the river there is no bridge on the official line. Bull sign present but not the bull

I ended up running to this one as I was due to assist at a night orienteering event near Alcester. The sign on the stile warning of the bull made me a little nervous but apart from his droppings I didn’t come across him.

A glorious spot at the junction of four blossom hedges and four flower-filled pasture/hay fields. Easy access off a lane near to Shell Ford picnic site and pillar is on a public path. It's on the summit of a low ridge and you can see in all directions. If you haven't cottoned on to the fact that I love the Worcestershire countryside at this time of year, perhaps this'll convince you! Disturbed three curlew and a small fox near the pillar, which is all intact with the original plug.

An enjoyable one this. Its situated on a footpath through a very old fashioned sort of farm. Its pastureland grazed by Herefords. Loads of birds too, and the journey over from Droitwich was enlivened by having to give way to ducks swimming across the road. I am getting to like these 'Borsetshire' trigs. Pillar in very good condition and all there.
