A Trig with Neighbours According to this site there are 244,282 grid-squares containing land in Britain.
An accurate figure of the number of trig points still standing, though, isn't so easy to come by. This is mostly because the serious trig-bagging websites include in their lists the sites of now-destroyed ones, and also often list more minor structures involved in triangulation. (Though I'm sure if I got the hang of various filters in the complicated looking searchboxes it could be done). Online articles celebrating Rob Woodall's completion of all Britain's trig points in 2016 put the figure at 6,190.
Since this impressive feat took over a decade though - including a two-year wait for a landowner to grant access to one pillar - it is likely the figure is slightly lower now, due to them being destroyed or moved by landowners (they are not protected structures as a lot of people think), and general effects of the weather.
If 6,190 is taken as the figure, though, it means that there is a trig point for every 39 grid-squares, on average. Which makes this tiny part of Britain something of an anomaly I'm sure. Not only is there a trig point in the grid-square immediately West of this one; there is another two squares South of that one. This means that a 3x2 block contains three trig points. Since none of them sit on particularly difficult terrain, there is the very unusual possibility of visiting three trig points on a leisurely two to three hour circular walk.
This one's official name is 'Ringinglow', and it first got used in calculations in 1948. There is a moderate steady incline from the North, but on the opposite side the field dips down quite steeply.
