A strong contender for My Favourite Pillar. Not only is it in excellent condition, and sited in a prime location with an expansive view, but the footpath leading to it from the east (thank you mickandshane and Father Ted) is exceptionally beautiful, too. The folly is nothing to write home about, but the footpath leads across the top of an old limekiln, which is worth a look.

Noticed a cut mark on nearby walford church whilst visiting my Grandads grave but no idea how to add it to the database, so hope that somebody reading this can kindly do so.

We parked in the Goodrich Castle car park for this one. Walking due south up onto Coppet Hill to bag the HuMP and trig. Doesn't seem to be any public row on the hill, but looks like it's common access land. Map marks a Folly, but just looked like some ruins to us - we had lunch there. Pillar is in good condition and some very good views to be had, particularly to the north and west.

This took longer than it should have done as I mistook where I was on the OS map and ended up on the bridleway below the pillar and so had a longer walk than I should have done. The pillar is in good condition with a replacement asphalt plug. Faint traces of paint to be seen. Sightholes below grass level. Excellent views W/NW over the Wye valley to Wales.

Lovely hill on the edge of The Forest. Surrounded by the Wye and covered in very fine woodland in autumn colours. The trig is not the summit, that is in a wood just above with a ruined folly near by. Views were pretty good over to Ross. Scotland were giving France a game in the World Cup, and I left the car at half time. Pillar intact except for plug,thatbeing repalced by concrete.
