Questionable names

I’ve just come across this list (whilst looking for something else!) and feel I have to nominate TP5324 Pasturehouse Farm for inclusion.

This is my log from my third visit on 7/3/26

Third visit and I still don’t know why this is called Pasturehouse ...

Re: Collective Noun?

I was also pondering this recently. More what a group of trig point enthusiasts would be called, rather than a group of pillars. I decided upon ‘A triangulation of triggers’
You could pose the question on the Facebook group also if you are a member (Finding all the UK trig points)

Re: Uploading photos

Yes. I’m presuming that is going to be relevant? Take on phone (iPhone) and air drop to my iPad, from where I upload them to the trig page.

Uploading photos

Is it possible to rotate photos on the trig point page? Often, but not always, if I try to upload a ‘portrait’ image, it turns into a landscape, and the pillar appears horizontal. I have never had a landscape image turn into a portrait.

Vanessa’s

Most Vanessa style pillars are located in Scotland is seemingly accepted as fact; but is there a list of non Scottish Vanessa’s available?

Pillars on islands

Having visited two of what I call 'single pillar islands' this year - Ailsa Craig and Hirta (St.Kilda) I was wondering if there is a complete list of these islands, and a list of other islands with the number of pillars on them? I had a look at Harold Street but to my inexperienced eye I can't make ...

Re: Geocaching/TrigPointing

I asked one of our local puzzle cachers and they are baffled as well. They did point me in the direction of this trig related cache though.

it seems I went very close without realising when I visited the nearby pillar.

Trig Rescue International Group (TRIG)

Rob started a discussion on the 'Finding all the UK trig points' Facebook group about the current status of pillar TP3005 - Easter Fortissat, and whether it has been 'burnt' in a bonfire. If this were a steam engine a group of enthusiasts could club together and buy it from its owner. Can we do that ...

Re: Rob's FBM completion

Thanks. It seems there's one, very close to Moacky Mansion, which I drive past every morning. Must stop one day soon to have a look.
