Limestone Bank Trig Point

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.

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.
