No fencing remembered by me on my first visit to this pillar 6/8/05. . for my geeky invention of a 'Birthday trig Walk of Life' this is my son Jamie's 6th birthday trig pillar and this was a deliberate detour to sit Jamie on it five weeks after his sixth birthday. Dad was excited to point out the significance of this trig to Jamie, to which his response was, "So what dad!!" Fly forward 18 years and I returned in February 2023 out of hours to make an air dry clay cast of the flush bracket only to find, to my dismay, it all behind fences and six foot High gates and chicken farm and wind farm. Abandoned then and vowed to come back at a time when it might be open. But today I arrived in the middle of the night at 2am to look for somewhere close by to sleep the night in my car and attempt it in daylight and see whether there would any reasonable means of access. A useful woodland car park found very close by to the west. After only a couple of hours sleep woke up at five and decided to go and have a checkout in daylight. Notice that the fence to the right of the gate wasn't totally secure at the bottom and could be pulled up a little bit and I speculated that since I had a ground sheet in my car that perhaps I could put the ground sheet down and maybe there was just enough room if I lay on my back to slide underneath the fence while I pulled to up. Yes, I was right, this I managed to do at 5.30am..job done pics and clay mould made. Yabbadabbadoo

Bagged along with Loath Hill during a 10 mile walk from Oxton to Farnsfield and back. The trig pillar is within the perimeter fence of a chicken farm and as the premises were open I nipped through the gate and took a couple of pictures. It can also be seen and photographed through the fence/hedge from the roadside if the farm is closed #3/6 today

(1411) Gate was locked today. It was Sunday after all. Pillar readily visible from the entrance way, and more so from the roadside. Tantalisingly close to the fence. Unfortunately the FB can't be viewed from there. All appears good. Will try again to gain access when I'm back in the area. Pillar history: Built on the 8th of February 1937, at a cost of £5 4s 3d. Last maintained by the OS in November of 1982.

This Pillar has been carefully treated after construction work has taken place.It proudly sits on new concrete base along side new fence.There is row after row of new buildings with new road system to them.I think future TP baggers will find this an easy one to find as the site will be open to access.Praise must be given to the Civil Engineering team for the respect it has shown to this Pillar where it sits with importance on this new site.

This is no longer an easy roadside bag. Trig is now on the other side of a new metal fence. Earth moving equipment active on site. Gate was open so sneaked in for a quick visit. Plug intact, good condition - looks like the pillar will survive the developments but may become inaccessible.

Between a hedge and a brutal electric fence just off a lane, and guarding a filed of ten thousand free-range chickens! There a 1p. piece on the top of the pillar [which I left intact!]. It has the original plug - one of those unusual ones with highly-raised letters set in a double indented circle. Some white paint. All sightholes below soil level. Limited agricultural views. There is also a field next door growing red onions!!
