Day 2 of 14: A Dunbar to Keswick Walk. First pillar of this year's mission. From camp at Thorntonloch and about to join the Southern Upland Way en route to a wild camp at Watch Water. Easy roadsider in good condition and pillar number 299 for me, feeling ultimate excitement for the fortnight ahead.

Spent the morning in Abbey St Bathans visited Edin`s Broch a lovely 6 mile walk. While in the area I wanted to lay a hand on this trig. Parked short of the TP and walked the last 30 metre along the road. I did not want to tap it as I drove past.

Passing by on the bike along a section of the Southern Upland Way between Blackburn and Ellemford. (Loop out of Oldhamstocks). Looks more or less as it usually does.

A well presented roadside pillar. Still maintains evidence of whitewash. Windfarm to the east and inquisitive sheep to the west. The unusual temperature of 15 degrees for February along with setting sun added value to this trig point.

Wasn't out looking for trigs, but when it's just standing there by the road side, it seems rude not to stop and say hello. Spider cap has now gone. Top open. One top edge chipped, but generally in good nick.

Roadside job. Pillar VGC and still white then. Spider possessed an OS boss with deep indented lettering, which I believe has since been filtched. FB faces WSW across road. S7164 built 11th September 1952. Tertiary station in Block NT86, Berwick. Been there twice, original visit c14/07/1985. I originally had this named Quixwood Moor on my old listings. Photographed 29/08/1992, GRP

First visit. To record FB number. The pillar was completed 11th September 1952 costing £11.16s.3d. In 1953 this marker was computed for triangulation as tertiary station NT86/T30 in the Berwick block. The flush bracket was levelled for height in 1955. This trig point was last maintained by the OS in July 1971 but was repainted around 1992. Roadside pillar.
