Concrete ring trig points and a Wainwright error?

[agentmancuso]

Station type updated.

You were right about the Boughton Water Tank Intersected Station too Ted; the original user-added entry had had two digits transposed in the GR, so wasn't matched properly at the time of the bulk incorporation of missing stations.

TP19379 - Abercwmboi Auxiliary found by Dusty

Its been rather quiet as regards the discovery of Concrete Rings lately.

But Dusty has now located another:
TP17123 - Middle Dale http://trigpointing.uk/trig/17123

That takes the total to 27:

In addition, there are two 'possibles':

TP25218 - Ringshill Place http://trigpointing.uk/trig/25218
which has been reported as a Ring but could do with a log and photo to confirm.

Also, the OS station record for TP17488 - Snilesworth Moor refers to an
'emplacement ring' which indicates that it has (or maybe 'had') a ring.
CJO reports it as possibly missing; a second opinion would be useful
(I should really make an effort and visit).

The list of Concrete Rings is now up to 31

Latest find is Moss Farm, http://trigpointing.uk/trig/17336

Updated, thanks.

Bolnhurst http://trigpointing.uk/trig/755 is a Buried Block and also a
passive station. The link to the OS page for the latter is
https://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/gps/le ... n/T1TL0559
This in turn links to a sketch with a handwritten comment 'B/B WITH DETECTOR'.

A detector is an alternative to the OS term 'Emplacement Ring' which
is what we call a Concrete Ring.

So Bolnhurst is a candidate - pity that its not easy to access

I notice that th OSGB36 Archive says "COORDS SUSPECT SEE TRIG FILE", which doesn't help any

No Concrete Rings rediscovered for a while then 2 come along together!

Congrats to CJO and MickandKim

Perhaps the Bleak Hill trig might be given a condition of 'Remains'?
Strictly speaking, the ring is an aid to detect the bolt and is not in itself the trig.

Agreed, updated.
