A very muddy and boggy part of the world! The trig point is surrounded by it's own moat of peat mud, so take care when visiting and wear waterproof footwear as it's very wet.

Feb 2023- wet underfoot and wild winds. Not all puddles are equal! Over my knee at one point. I'd advise waterproof boots and gaitors as it's a couple of miles of peat bog and water. There are better views than the trig point but nice to achieve.
