Sitting on a less visited hill range above the Firth of Clyde, Bromley Muir stands at an elevation of 304 meters, making it a delightful day out for hikers of various skill levels. The summit provides some excellent views over Loch Lomond, and in other directions, on a clear day.
The summit proudly boasts a pillar trigpoint - there is already a geocache hidden there, but this YOSM isn't hidden far away. Please ensure the container is securely re-hidden as it's a bit of a walk up here and we don't want people to be disappointed.
The OS maps show the 304m summit at the trigpoint, but hillbagging now lists the summit as being the next mound to the north, the OS map shows this as a spot height of 303m but it must have been remeasured at 304.2m more recently.
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.

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.
