The house and bungalow are still not lived in but we saw a workman and he gave us permission. Not as easy to spot as on a mound surrounded by nettles. We managed to trample a way through .

I arrived at the farm, passing the 'Sold' sign, and parked up in the yard. I went to find someone to ask for permission, but it was a symbolic gesture - it's very obvious that the entire site is currently deserted. The house and the bungalow are both empty, the buildings are all in a state of abandonment, there's no evidence of any recent livestock and all the farm machinery and vehicles have been removed. It was therefore a very easy quick nip round the back of the farm (passing the slurry tank on your right) to visit the pillar. It sits on a small grassy mound in the middle of the field, in good weathered condition for its age, albeit with a replacement cap. Presently very easy to visit before the new owners take possession.

Couldn't reach this one earlier in the week due to the road being compacted snow and ice. Parked at the entrance to the farm, no one about to ask so just made my way to the trig.

With jonglew and coinea. Parked at the farm, no-one about so wandered round the back to pasture beyond. Pillar sits on a plinth in a patch of rough ground. Centre cap missing, replaced by one of the late Jonathan Rouse's composite caps; front sight hole open. Some views N beyond hedgeline.

On a round trip with my walking mate, Tracker Dog. Set off from Thixendale, an isolated wolds village, to the deserted medieval village of Wharram Percy and taking in this trig on the way back. Asked for permission at the farm (very quiet, it seemed run down) and it was kindly given. The trig was easily found on the brow of the hill behind the farm, set on what looked like a tumulus. The view was probably of the Vale of Pickering, to the NW. A great day walking: sunny, breezy through some marvellous chalky wolds scenery.

(1215) Called in at the farm. Chap there readily gave permission to visit the pillar. Walking down I met with another farm worker who said that he was in the process of adding slurry to the field, and was warned that it will smell. And boy, he wasn't kidding. Pillar sits on a small mound. Base exposed, some hairline cracks and non original plug, with spider off-centre. Hooks are twisted wire. OS plaque present. I'm sure, on any other day, this visit would have been a decent one, but that slurry smell will linger in my memory for some time to come...

Don't slurry, be happy... ©eon

Accessible and visible. Asked at farm for permission to visit. Readily agreed and showed me the best way to reach it without getting muddy. Field had been harvested so easy to reach. Pillar on mound in cultivated area. Pillar in good condition with OS plaque dated July 1999 indicating GPS use. Plastic plug and one hole open. Reasonable views.

Noone in at either the house or bungalow to request permission from and no signs of activity in the yard. Approached from road junction then along the field edge. Trig looking a bit scruffy; plug replaced by plastic cover, GPS plaque. Partially-harvested crop of field beans. Rainy day so views were disappointing.

Kilburn White Horse to the North, Bridlington to the East, Drax to the South and Menwith Hill to the West. Well worth the smell of pigs, was offered a guided tour by the pig-man but preferred the views!

Sought and granted permission at the house and had to explain myself again at the actual pig farm but no problem in reality. Tumult surrounded by growing crops but approached using tractor tracks. Nice views. Beware – the farmyard is muddy
