58 - Competition follow up

I emailed  British Orienteering about the trig point object - here is the reply:

Conrad

I have been in touch with the local orienteering club and regional development officer. Neither have any knowledge as to why an orienteering punch is attached to the trig point. One suggestion is that it may be linked to fell races (3 peaks?)or some LDWA challenge.

I have now sent a query to Ordnance Survey. I will post the result as and when I receive a reply. The last time I tried to get some information from the OS I did not get a reply.

I've just got onto Geocaching, but more of that later.
