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 410

BENCHMARKS continued

Look behind ya!
M.C. had only to swivel through 180ยบ to find this one on the section of old stone wall that abuts the library on Angelsea Road in Dublin.

NUMBER 409

BENCHMARKS continued

M.C. is the benchmark hunter you can rely on; if he was a loaf of bread he would be your favourite family pan (to be eaten with butter and jam, and a nice pot of tea). His late Spring safari continues with this one on Anglesea Road, Ballsbridge in Dublin.
