Went for a hike up a local hill with a monument on top that we had spotted from the road a couple of times and wondered what it was. Dave was busy with stuff in the house and didn't much fancy the walk so I just headed out alone. Quite a steep hill from the Strathmore valley up to the trig point (334m) and monument (turns out it was built in 1774 and used to house an observatory), but the biggest hazard had to be the field of cows and large spikey gorse bushes I had to treck through!
