    this will certainly be recognised by some.
    I wouldn't want to infer any wanton vandalism but it does appear to have been painted in the local club colours....

    I didn't want to make it too obvious...

    Yes, a few of us from Pennine went up and painted it in an attempt to get the Glossopdale guys in trouble with the law!!

    Actually, I presume if someone has 'adopted' a trig they can paint it any colour they like?

    Most of you will never have been to this one. This is the turn around point (916 mtrs) for the Galtee More IMRA race next Sunday. It's a tough "medium". They don't build them as well in Ireland!

    Been in my house about 17 years and it was only last year, I found out there is a Trig a couple of hundred metres from my house. Marple Ridge Trig.

    Durisdeer, no; Thieveley, no;
    thought this was an easy one
    clue: between the "middle background" and the "far background" is the Derwent valley
