Great view from the top of all surrounding hills but it will be the exquisite walk up on the track past Holloway Rocks that I'll remember this trig for.

Parked at Stowe Church, lovely 3 mile circular walk, suprisingly steep up past Holloway Rocks. Mostly on PROWs, short trespass across hillside pasture to trig. Pillar's white coat no longer pristine, but better than most. Original cap with lightly indented lettering; rear sight hole only open; concrete base becoming exposed. Extensive views N, E & S; W obscured by fir plantation.

Two trigs from one stop!! Parked on the verge of the minor road at Five Turnings and took the bike out for the 3.5km ride to this Trig. Very mudddy in initial climb but OK once on the ridgeline. Trig still as others have found it with reasonable local views.
