Official name of this Trig Station as per NSW Department of Lands is: Terrigal.
Serial number is: TS4327.

This is a steel pillar with mast and vanes placed on the side of the reservoir. Interesting to note that when last inspected it was reported as not being vertical.
Logs
We could see the reservoir and the trig point form back near the beach, but as we got closer all we could spy was the reservoir itself.
We drove on to the access road to get a shot of the car as our proof of visit, but it seems that this road has been co-opted as a driveway. Oops.
These things really are massive when viewed from up close. Also nice to see one that isn't locked away behind a big barbed wire fence.

Nice day to be exploring the coast on the bike. Got up close but definitely a better view of the top from over towards the Skillion

The location is at the top of the stairs, I think I can see it but not sure.

Popped into Terrigal to sort out final details of an Adventure I'm building there and on the way home, made a little detour here to grab this cache. Like others, all I saw (and grabbed a photo of) is the water tank and lots of telco equipment. It would seem that the only way to see the trig, if indeed it still is up on top,is to go up the stairs ... but that's an absolute no-no and not about to happen!
No trig left here that we could see just the reservoir with various tel-co equipment.
Up on the Central Coast catching up with family at Lisarow. After lunch headed to the beach collecting some GC caches as well as some trigs along the way. Caught up with some of our regular caching crew who were also close by this afternoon. Couldn't spot the actual trig, or trig mast...but the reservoir remains

Out and about caching in the area and found this trig. The required photo has been added to the gallery. We too couldn't locate any sign of vanes. TFTT

I drove right around the water tank (the road circles it), but no sign of the trig. Here's a photograph of the tank to show I was there.

Out doing a few GCA trigs today. Can't really find anything here at GZ resembling a trig so here's a pic of my iGPS at the water tower. TFTC.
Terrigal Dive weekend. I took the time to visit this trig before heading home. Thanks

We came by here looking for a few more trigs for the day. It's a prominent water tower right by the houses but it's hard to see a trig up there. We looked at the photo by Shifter Brains and took a shot there. It looks like the vanes which were there back then have disappeared.

Located on an afternoon caching at Terrigal - surprised it hadn't been done previously.
