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 701

BENCHMARKS continued
Benchmarker has long held a dream to live in a house that nestles a 'mark on its structure. Opportunities for this arise perhaps once in a lifetime; if indeed ever. So, it was with an enormous sense of disappointment to discover that such a chance had arisen and M.C. had failed to inform of said eventuality. Words will be exchanged; never fear! It's on the gable wall of a house on Turvey Avenue near the centre of Donabate in County Dublin.
