Parked at T junction of yellow roads sh470918. Space for up to 3 cars. A 70m walk southward along minor road then a stone style eastward allows access onto the footpath. Landowner allows access only as far as trig. Good to see the landowner maintains a very clear approach to this pillar. Spider top intact and flush bracket faces south. Lovely spot and easy to identify Parys Mountain, Mynydd-y-Garn and power station to the west. Clear signage and views pushes this score to a 6.

There is a small layby here (53°24'4.29"N 4°18'10.04"W) with room for perhaps two cars. Short hike up the lane and then left up the marked footpath. No right of way beyond the trig point.

Good views from top and Jo presented with her trig bagging t shirt. Back down following the road back into Pen Y Sarn. Enjoyed our 3 days bagging trigs of Anglesey.
