A rivet benchmark, as listed in the Benchmark Database: http://www.bench-marks.org.uk/bm92083 , remains on a small stone wall on the Wansdyke path on Bath's southern downland. It is on a junction of paths and close to the Three Ways School. The latter is a modern (2007) school for special needs pupils. Before that there were a number of individual establishments, and the original school was founded in the early twentieth century as Three Ways Cottages; this was a part of the nearby Poor Law Workhouse and a Bath Corporation institution.
