The CC Trig Point bagger thread, now incorporating other interesting geographs

[biggs682]

Shovel required, for infilling?

no just a good torch

I shall have to check Sunday and see if I can see the marker usually surrounded by woods , now that he leaves have dropped, and the snow has not yet fallen.

You need to carry a set of secateurs and do a bit of light gardening around the trig. I've often thought of painting one nearby like the one done up like a Minion but sadly I can't paint worth a toss

Very fine church interior. Quite elegant. (Don't get me started).

Well done team - this thread has reached its 100th Birthday!

I'm absolutely blown away at 100 pages of comradely fellowship. 100 pages encouraging folk to get out on their bikes and explore. Well done, and thank you to all that have contributed.

This may well have another hundred pages or so, especially when churches have come into play.

i got there just as a lady was opening the church so took quite a few more interior pictures, it's one i have wanted to visit and check for benchmarks for ages , but it has no vehicular access as you have to access via a narrow and steep footpath alongside a hedgerow and have never fancied trying it on a road bike , well worth a visit for those near enough .

A fair few seem to have been used as Trig Points as well, over here, though.

@Drago, @biggs682, hope the "pot holing" goes ok.

A great excuse to 'splice the mainbrace' later...

Aye, well done, folks.
100 pages of interesting 'stuff'

I stopped by the Rugby club this morning but there were too many people milling about .

Stumbled over this on my morning stroll with the dog

Modern version?

I've still about 60 more pages to catch up on so apologies if these have been discussed or dismissed

The steeple, being a good distant surveyor's mark in olden times, perhaps?
My old roomate at Uni is a surveyor, I should ramble along, next time I'm in his neck o' the woods. (About 300 miles away).
