There's great views over Cardiff from this trig point. It is 264.7m above sea level.
There are quite a few ways to approach this trig point but all end on the beautiful ridgeway with its interesting trees and views.
Parking / route: The way I tend to approach is park at Cefn Onn or arrive by train at Lisvane station. It is then up through the park, head east and at the gate (see waypoint) I take the track that avaids much but not all of Graig Hill road (take care on the last section).
Cache: You are looking for a hanging microcache a short distance (~10m west) from the trig point.
About Ye Ole Survey Monuments
|
|
Ye Ole Survey Monument (YOSM) is a captivating series of caches that pays homage to the remarkable legacy of OutForTheHunt's YSM series (GC45CC).
YOSM caches are strategically positioned at or near Trig Points. These triangulation stations have played a pivotal role as surveying landmarks, contributing to the mapping of expansive territories.
Some of these points, bearing historical significance, might now be situated on private land or have vanished with time. As a result, the caches are artfully placed in close proximity, reverently acknowledging the historical importance of these survey monuments.

More information, bookmarks and statistics can be found at the YOSM Website
If anybody would like to expand the Ye Ole Survey Monuments Series, please do.
I would ask that you request a number for your cache first at www.yosm.org.uk
so we can keep track of the numbers and names to avoid duplication.
