The site of a flush bracket bench mark which used to be sited at a railway bridge on the outskirts of Templepatrick Image The bracket was removed sometime in the early 1970s. A cut mark was subsequently added to the bridge when it was discovered that the bracket had gone Image Should you have the bracket, maybe you could drop me a line? Perhaps it lies dusty and forgotten in your garden shed or have you given it pride of place on your mantlepiece? When it was here, the bracket was numbered OSBM 3266. The mark was levelled to 59.01 metres above MSL. A flush bracket is a type of bench mark set onto the face of a building.
