This one is from Ross who writes “ It is located high in the Mourne Mountains on the Slievenaman Road near Spelga Dam and, in fact, is the only mark (apart from those on Triangulation Pillars) I can find in N.Ireland above 400m in height.”

Ross blogs on all things to do with benchmarking at:- http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=56109555&displayclass=black
