Trig Points

[Richard A Thackeray]

I notice them every so often, because of where they are

That said, I noticed one on Saturday morning, mainly due to the Sun catching it, & the Rape Seed crop behind it
However, on checking OS mapping of the area, for another matter, it's not marked
I've checked my own map, Bing (OS) maps, & the little GeoGraph site maps

I've not had chance/cause to return yet
There is, the other possibility, it may be a (white painted) BeeHive?

I'm on annual-leave tomorrow, so will try to nip over, & have a look

I bagged one yesterday, been looking at the nearby tower on my visits to the area for 40 years so finally got the walking boots on.
Up and down in less than 2 hours, pleasantly surprised. Views were excellent considering how dull a day it was.

Kinpurnie (KInpurney) Hill HERE

Kinpurney is the local name...

A mere Bagatelle - the Raj surveyed India the same way - when India was quite a bit bigger than it is now

Totally forgot until this morning, & took a camera, as I'd pass it on the way to the ParkRun

Looking at the mapping, it's at SE194 391 (LandRanger 110)

And, at the end of this footpath (zoomable map below image)
