Distant lines of sight for surveyors would not have been good from this pillar. This is the best aspect although the BT Tower is also just visible in an ESE direction. The view to the north and west is totally blocked by trees. The new Wembley Stadium arch is just visible through the murk. This is possibly the closest OS Triangulation Pillar to central London.
