(Redirected from Trig point)

A trig point is usually some form of structure located on the highest point of a hill/mountain. Generally used by surveyors for performing triangulations to determine actual location. The structure can take many forms from old rock cairns (some may have a wooden staff in the centre) to more recent four legged metal structures.
