Happy Birthday Trig.


It's the Trigs birthday, it was first used on the 18th April 1936.
 
The trig pillar was first used in the retriangulation of Great Britain in 1936. On that day, a group of surveyors gathered around a white concrete pillar in a field in Cold Ashby and began the retriangulation of Great Britain.

So to celebrate a Trig picture, a windy day on Gummer How.
