Bagging trigs in fields (etiquette)
I've been bagging a few trigs recently but find a lot are in the middle of fields.
Do people tend to not bother with those and go for the easier ones, or is it a case of asking permission or "trespassing".

Re: Benchmark puzzle (Bolton-le-Sands, Lancashire)
This is indeed the nearest mark, and looks to be in the right place, but it is linked to the wrong stone.

This is the correct stone.

Re: Benchmark puzzle (Bolton-le-Sands, Lancashire)
Is this it maybe: PV0092 ?
No, it's not that. It is on the A6 road (hence crash barriers).
It was a hot day, and I was tired - should have taken a few more pictures and looked more closely at it.
The other side has an iron plaque on it that says "BUR...." with the rest hiden behind the crash ...

Re: Benchmark puzzle (Bolton-le-Sands, Lancashire)
Do you have a grid ref?
No, but it is somewhere around here: N54° 06.875' W2° 47.328'
It will be in square 47/69 on the Kendal and Morecambe OS Landranger map.
I think there is a dot and MS near where it is, but it is hard to tell as I highlight my long distance routes on the map in ...

I am a bit stumped about this and don't really know where else to turn.
Spotted this "milestone" near Bolton-le-Sands and on closer inspection (much later after finding it) it seems to have a benchmark on the top of it.
Can't seem to find any log of it on bench-marks.org.uk ...
