Ashover ROC Post - Derbyshire - May 2010

[smileysal]

Woke up to a lovely day (then my teen phoned to pick her up from college as no classes ) I was already in the mood to go out and find something to explore, so she had to come with me, with much moaning and complaining. I'd not been out for a few weeks, so needed to get back out and explore something and this fitted the bill. (ie, not too far to walk from the car, and a lovely view to boot. ) So off we went.

This post as it's on a toursit trail, ie next to seat and loads of rocks high above Ashover, it's all welded shut, so no inside shots

​

And just for Foxy, the teen pointing out FOXY on a rock up there lol.

Cheers,

Sal

Its owned by three local radio hams who got fed up with people trying to break into it and have therefore welded it shut!

I remember dragging Chelle`s 15 year old up to see a ROC post near Avebury,and when we got there she was quite uninspired by what she described as a bit of concrete sticking out of the ground...she has never ceased to remind of that fact two years later!!

Cheers MD, I thought it had a few more bits to the top than the only other one i've ever been to.

Cheer Rockhopper. I'd read somewhere that that post had been used for Radio Hams, shame they can't get to use it now either.

CHeers Foxy, couldn't resist that pic when i saw it up there.
