NN982158, LR58.
HISTORY
Pillar completed 20th July 1950, no record of cost. Computed as tertiary station NO02/T1 in January 1951. Flush bracket S6100 was levelled for height to first class precision, tertiary standards in January 1956. The final pre-GPS maintenance by the Ordnance Survey was in July 1991. This marker continued to be maintained by the OS as GPS passive station C1NN9815.
SITE VISIT
The pillar was in good condition. Spider centre plugged with white painted brown plaster. The flush bracket faced southeast compass measurement 139°. Vented through front (SE) sight hole, others plugged. Upward views limited to Ben Vorlich (Coire Garbh), Craig Rossie and some smaller Perthshire tops.

SUBSEQUENTLY
This pillar has since been removed by the landowner, reasons unknown. This had happened by March 2015. The pillar was found lying face down in April 2017. The new location is NN_98467_16061.

A 150MHz CPU upgrade built by the first Apple licensed clonebuilder Power Computing Corporation from Texas. They were so successfull in the high-end market - they managed a 225MHz CPU when Apple didn't deliver something similar - that Apple had to sue them and eventually buy them (and their license) out for $100 million.
I actually sold some of those Power Computing models back in the day. Their low-end computers were quite crappy, but the later faster (200MHz) towers were nice computers.
Their last advert (1997) read: "I think we were just too different..."
There was room behind the presentation area for work space tables. We were all busy on private projects during the weekend.

NG418350, LR32.
HISTORY
Pillar completed 1st May 1958 costing £67.1s.2d. Computed as secondary triangulation station NG24/52 within the Skye secondary block, and levelled to second class precision during 1958. This pillar station was last maintained by the Ordnance Survey in April 1978.
SITE VISIT
Overall approach from the west. Parked in a wide track entrance at NG389349. Followed the mapped estate track to Bealach Mòr ~NG411356. Took a beeline route SE across rough ground followed by a steep climb to the summit. Open grazing hill. The pillar is in good condition. The spider retains its original OS centre cap with raised large narrow letters. The flush bracket faces west, compass measurement 268°. All four sight holes are open, the pillar bolt is visible. The spectacular 360° panoramic view includes the Cuillin Ridge, Rum, Canna, South Uist, MacLeod's Tables, North Uist, Harris, Storr, Dun Caan, Glamaig, Blabheinn.
