The CC Trig Point bagger thread, now incorporating other interesting geographs

Seriously Martin, some very interesting plates and markers on old telegraph poles.

Had a look at some this afternoon along the back straight and summer leys , sorry didnt do a lot for me not that benchmarks etc etc do either but they are more interesting

Have there been any sightings where a benchmark has been cut into wood ?

Had a look for rivets at 5 locations late this afters but nothing.
Drystane dykes are a wasteland for me.
Plenty sun though

A nice selection of post boxes this morning.

After a no find at Farndish church.

A V R wall box in the same village.

Then this G R one outside Hinwick Hall

And another V R one in Hinwick village

And another V R one in Easton Maudit

I had a bit of time to spare in Brixworth so, near the Saxon church, I found a couple of plaques, plus the old library sign.

What's the smaller blue one there for?

It's a Brixworth Trail of 'interesting' places in the village. Nothing to do with official Blue Plaques

Out for a ride with a certain Mr Biggs of this Parish this morning

First finds were in Burton Latimer.

Then, on The Diner, sadly closed

Up the hill, and towards the church, was this BM

Finally, a brace of utility discs. We eventually bagged one each

A very productive 32 miles with @biggs682

Well met, sir!

 

[biggs682]

Thanks @PeteXXX

Great ride and some new benchmarks and plates

Nice old post box before we met up

Perhaps we can get @Drago out next time

 

[PeteXXX]

Good idea!

 

[Bobby Mhor]

Well done, lads
My paltry cycle today was on previously hunted ground.
mind you most of my runs are.

Me and her up the top of Mam Tor today. I have been up Mam Nick many times by bike but today it was a drive up to the NT car park and a short hike with her in the sling. Now she wants to try paragliding.
