Summit cairn on Saskills, the highest point of Newton Fell
There is a trig station SD3984 : OS bolt triangulation station, Saskills here which takes some searching out - it is a bolt stuck into the rock right beside the cairn at an altitude of 238.658m asl. The summit is now CRoW access land and can be accessed from White Stone or from the High Newton Reservoir visible here in the middle distance. Attached to a stone of the cairn is a small, metal memorial plaque SD3984 : Memorial plaque to 'Jen', summit of Newton Fell which reads:
'In memory of my loving daughter Jen "Did I ever tell you your my hero" 1971 - 2010'.
