Parked at large car park FOC at tq154488. Labyrinth of footpaths eventually lead me to approach the temple from the west.A further 100m eastward and the pillar is nestled on south side of very wide track hidden behind tall bracken. Fortunately a feint small path indicates precise location of pillar at this time of year. Spider plug has a tar infill and pillar still retains a fair flush of white paint. No views but a lovely woodland walk.

Presumably when this was originally placed it was clear of trees and vegetation. Approached from north east corner of open field, headed south west up into woods. Then turn right and follow the footpath. Gentle climb. Pillar is on the left of the path about 150 metres before the Temple. Easy access, in scrubby ground. Raised S prefix, extra point.

A total bugger to find, because I'm idiot enough to look for it in July when all the ferns have grown tall enough to almost completely conceal it. Walked past it three times before spotting the damn thing! Trig offers no views, but a few benches along the way do, as does the temple at the top of the hill.

Parked on the lane leading to Milton Heath woodland reserve. Pleasant walk to the pillar and loved 'The Temple'. All very peaceful here after the crowds on Box Hill.

Greensand Way #5 - almost totally overwhelmed by nettles and cleavers at this time of year and a bit of a challenge to find. No views - better ones from the nearby Temple. S s/hole open and asphalt cap but otherwise vgc.

I used the car park to the north-west, near Milton Heath. Then used the footpaths up to The Temple and the pillar. The former is actually higher than the latter. The pillar is in good coindition although the original metal plug has been replaced by one of the tarmac type. Lovely woodland but restricted views.

Bit harder to get to than in the last log. You need to go round the back to reach it (unless you want to tramp though stinging nettles - i was wearing sandles so I didn't!) looks like it been painted to cover over the graffity.

Situated in an area of parkland on the outskirts of Dorking. Sadly, it has received the unwanted attention of some local graffiti morons.
