Location

Possibly part of Abbey View cemetery in Brier

Participants

Thomcat

Expedition

Aerial photo resembled woods, but sitemap shows it associated with the cemetery. Worth a visit.

As I rounded a corner, I realized I had visited this area before. The cannon was still in place, nice as ever.

The map shows a pair of diagonal lines leading directly to the hash - not a road, but a gap in the properties? A power line access? I found a perfect parking spot right next to that and spotted the first bad sign.

Not trespassing but clarifying, I took a few steps past the road. There was a nice trail leading in the proper direction. Had I seen a caretaker nearby, I would have asked for permission, but instead I headed home.
