Limestone Bank Trig Point

Trig Point In Simonburn, Northumberland

This is the trig point for Limestone Bank (251m) near Simonburn.

Height - 251m // Bracket - S6659 // Postcode - NE46 4DA

This is the Limestone Bank trig point (251m) sitting on Hadrian's Wall near Simonburn.

Starting from the parking area near the Black Carts Turret, this is a nice easy bagging as you have a short walk past some chunks of Hadrian's Wall before you arrive at the trig point.

There is probably just enough to squeeze one car in at Black Carts Turret, then you simply cross the style and head west following the bits of wall to the trig point. Around 600m and a gentle incline of 39m.

Just follow this map, or find it on OS Maps.

We parked on the farm track adjacent to the section of Hadrian's Wall at Black Carts Turret, as we were only leaping out to quickly visit the trig. You may be better parking at Brocolitia Car Park and walking along the Hadrian's Wall Path, but is a longer route.

Thanks for checking out this place on the Fabulous North! I do enjoy a wander out in to the countryside trying to find hidden gems that not many people know about. You can't beat a rogue Pele tower up a remote hill or a mysterious stone circle or a stunning waterfall secluded in a forest.
