The intention with this website is to locate at least 1,001 benchmark sites, or die in the attempt (no flowers please, house private). Photos of any benchmark sites found will be posted at intervals over the coming days, weeks, months, years, decades, centuries ... Anyone who wishes to contribute can send photos and descriptions of any benchmarks they find and would like to have included here, to mfbourke@gmail.com See post Number 1 for a fuller description.

NUMBER 189

BENCHMARKS continued
 
Benchmarker took a wee dander across the recently opened Peace Bridge in Derry. This pedestrian only bridge (O.K., you may push a cycle if you insist) links the west side of the Foyle near the Guildhall, with the Waterside area. This 'mark is on the corner of an accommodation block within what was formerly Ebrington Barracks on the east bank of the Foyle in Derry.

Below: The 'mark on an accommodation block in the former Ebrington Barracks.

Above: Within the former Ebrington Barracks looking south towards the exit to Saint Columb's Road with the 'mark at the bottom of the red brick building at right.
