Obscured benchmark on Russell Road, Rhyl
Image: © Meirion Taken: 28 Jun 2011
This benchmark is located on the NW side of Russell Road & close to the junction with Conwy Street. The mark is not recorded in the current OS database but is shown on an 1871 map of the area at a height of 25.1ft above the Liverpool datum. The mark is located on top of a wall which has a more recent wall built on top of it. The mark is therefore partially obscured. It is therefore difficult to classify the type of mark as it could be a rivet, pivot or indeed a toppled cut mark.
