NUMBER 913

BENCHMARKS continued

This one in Edinburgh, Scotland, from Michael Byrne is on Comiston Road at it's junction with Comiston Gardens. Almost gone, this 'mark has only the ends of the three arrow flares remaining. The damage to the railings and the plinth on which the 'mark resided, looks like someones car did not quite make the turn!
