Geocache Description:


An unloved trigpoint hidden in a hedgerow surrounded by barbed wire, but despite this, it's in remarkably good condition. It has a good line of sight to Dewsbury Moor and Ossett.

This pillar was built on the 3rd of June 1947, at a cost of £8 14s 8d. It was last maintained by the OS in July of 1986.

The cache container isn't located at the trigpoint but it is hidden a short walk away.

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.
