I just love Trig bagging. It is such an achievement these people undertook all those years ago. You just never know how many will disappear. Thanks for sharing.

So true, i think Wiltshire has already lost so many, as there is a large area where there isn't any. It is fun trying to find them though. Thanks for watching

Great video, thank you. I have always thought them to be somewhat eerie. Whilst often looking out of place they also seem to 'belong'. Also sometimes the view reminds me how small the country is. From the trig point at Painswick Beacon (Kimsbury Hill Fort) , in Glos, you can see all the way up to Shropshire & over to the Black Mountains on a good day. Thanks again.

My late father was a surveyor for the Ordnance Survey. His job was to install and use these trig pillars. Although most are either redundant or destroyed, some are still in active service as GPS master reference points. Those will normally have a plaque on them stating that they are still in use.

[@openmindedwonderer]

oh wow, that great to know. Didn't realise some are still being used, great to know. thank you

My mate Veggiebagger is mad about these. He makes plaster casts of the brass plate sometimes, and even paints the occasional trig pillar. Bonkers and very loveable.

Hi Cara, thank you for this video 😊❤️ I have seen these markers in the landscape before, but never really paid to much attention to them. You see them a lot on hiking channels 😊 although I don’t think any hiking channels I have watched have ever used the word trig point before. This was super interesting and good luck hunting out all 103 of them 😊

[@openmindedwonderer]

I was pretty much the same, but i am finding them all over the place. it been quite fun so far trying to find them. :-) I get the impression that people call them all different things. I have always known them as trig points or trig pillars is another one.

Trig bragging, not a term I was familiar with but Trig Stations was familiar to me. In new Zealand we have those still. Not sure whether we have them in the Netherlands. Must look that up. So interesting. One would wonder how they measured the contours of the land all those years ago without the modern equipment of today. Great walk by the way. Lovely was to start the day.

OOPs, I missed the premier. Bagging trig points seems like an awesome quest. Probably some interesting stuff around them. The deed on my first piece of land was marked by oak trees😅. The distance was measured in chains⛓. In that area a light gauge railroad was scrapped, and the rails were driven into the ground as property markers. That was when George Washington was alive. They're still there today. I love history. Thank you Cara. Have an awesome day😍💞🐲

one thing that seems to always get missed, Is those little plaques on the trigs are not just signs they are an extremely important feature , they are the socket that a leveling bracket would clip into so they could accurately measure (using triangulation and TRIGonometry ) exactly where it was

Great video Cara , loved these woods you walked in. So interesting to hear that you have 103 Trig points in Wiltshire and that you are on a quest to find them . I did not know that some can still be found on housing estates either, we have only seen them up mountains :) Intersting to know that the lowest one is at Little Ouse and below sea level and in answer to your question, no i don't know anyone who has bagged all trig points in the UK .
