This Trig Pillar is made of concrete and was built in 1950. It was last maintained in 1982 by the Ordnance Survey and stands at a height of 14.802 metres above sea level. It's location is close to the entrance to the Idle Valley Nature Reserve, which is run by Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust, which was once Bellmoor Quarry. Pond Farm was immediately across the road, and demolished in the early 60's, it was a small holding. The cache is not at the published co-ordinates, you must solve the jigsaw puzzle to find the final location, it is a short walk to GZ.
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 https://yosm.org.uk so we can keep track of the numbers and names to avoid duplication.
