Chris Bienkowski: It is definite that neither trig point is the top. Near to the 561m trig is an elevated peat hag, with a pile of stones on top, which is about 2m higher than the base of the trig. According to my GPS the trig is at 59255 58728 and the peat top at 59194 58738. There is another cairned top on a rock outcrop the other side of the trig, but this looked lower. I'd guess that the rock outcrop by the 560m trig point is just about the same height as the peat top.
Alan Dawson: A conference at Lancaster University encouraged me to make a return visit, armed with my new altimeter. So I sat in the car park (in a car) for an hour as the visibility varied from dismal to minimal, then gave up and headed back north (I just managed Larriston Fell in the fading light, which was unpleasantly spongy once off the forest track). I hope to visit Ward's Stone again this year and try to reach a firm conclusion.
