Easily found with the aid of previous logs and images, the small tree in front of the barn was the best clue, remains only as the granite top has gone. surely condition has to be remains.

Above ground pillar is missing but the granite block with bolt above the chamber in still in place. Located as per previous instructions directly across the road from the tree beside the barn. Left as found lightly covered with some dirt but otherwise at ground level.

Yay! Granite block with large arrow marked bolt, at back of verge, 2m back from road, 1m E from W end of barn opposite. 2" down and found quickly with sketch albeit undimensioned. Left lightly covered. Present property came out, had never seen it, the above ground marker block evidently went before he moved in 2006ish.

Top block seems to have gone with a former resident of the cottage across the road. Didn't search for the chamber.

Was located along this grass verge TP7199©jonglew

6" of garden waste dumped along road side of hedge, dodgy GR, no sketch and no dimensions from previous finder. A few stones down there but prodding seemed a bit futile, soon gave up. I guess the marker stone is sitting in the garden of wherever the previous owners of the cottage moved to.

Came to spend the day with friends at a nearby camping barn so got a pass to collect some nearby trigs and caches. Parked by the cottage and verified that the top stone has gone from the cottage. Spent an age looking for the chamber as the given co-ords put you just on the other side of the hedge, got it in the end very close to the roadside of the hedge.

Not sure what condition to log. Parked at cottages and someone came out. I explained what I was looking for and they said it was in their garden. GPS had indicated roadside opposite. They only have the top and the story was that the grass cutter had got fed up with it sticking up so they had removed the top. Couldnt find the chamber but presume is still there.
