Parked in estate and used the footpaths to the non existent trig. I do question my sanity when taking pictures of something that was there once upon a time.

Exam over. A soggy day in the north east, so forgive me for picking an easy invisible. Parked at Toby Carvery then over Ponteland Road and the A696 a road which, 30 miles NW I wild camped near recently on the Pennine Way East walk. This is not quite as exciting, but I followed the ROW which leads to an obvious high point where the trig may once have been but is no more. No sign of the Cheviots today due to weather, but Newcastle airport tower and the Sage building were prominent. Pleasant enough surroundings. Can't help but note that Tyne and Wear has a lot of destroyed trigs and this is another.

Could it be? Er no.
Potential Location But another Tyne and Wear pillar is no more

Had to park in nearby housing estate. Iainmac's photo very useful for locating the missing trig - thanks!

Not a bad area for an afternoon walk. Lots of people out with their dogs. Trig position now has three or four rocks on top of it.

Used GPS; trig was either next to path and vandalised or else in field and farmerised.
