Finding the summit

Surveyor's note

ground 8m W of trig point at NH 43683 23168 is as high. Trig point 20m N at NH 43690 23165 and rocky summit 90m NE at NH 43751 23188 are both lower.

The recorded summit point is rock 5m N of cairn. That distinction matters on broad or flat tops, where the obvious cairn is not always the true high point.
