Well hidden but an easy bag Didn’t go in to field as over looked but can get quite close

For a dead end road, there was a lot of traffic along here this morning. Decided this trig was best accessed from the road because the bracket faces the hedge. A very prickly experience that left me with lots of scratches... and a few strange looks, too!

Approached from south east along country lane, didn’t see pillar at first. Turned around at bend in road and headed back to entrance to Priors Farm. Pulled over on verge. Looked around gate post on west side of entrance and spotted pillar about twenty metres along the hedge line. Probably a bit cheeky to walk along the field boundary. Noticed a hole in the hedge from road so probably able to get to it from that side. Spider and cap in place. Leaning slightly towards ditch, possibly should be classed as slightly damaged for that reason. Views to south of field and farm house.

A Chelmsford quickie! As for the pillar, it seems fine.

7/9 with Debi. Easy to nip round the back of the trees.

Located just the wrong side of the hedge from the road. Visible in winter with the flush bracket facing the hedge. Accessible by slipping passed the fence next to the drive way.

Parked up close by. I was not sure about access as it appears to be on private land, so only took photos from roadside through hedge. Pillar seems to be in good condition

Nothing much to add - except an awful lot easier than my previous one this evening; Longshot.

This one was nice and easy to find just behind the hedge that runs alongside the road. Just popped through the open gate and got the pics. The Spider and FB are all present and correct and any damage is consistent with previous reports.

Hidden from road behind hedge. Stainless Allen screws in the top seem fairly new.

The slight damage is chipping of the top edges round the spider.
