A rather battered benchmark

This benchmark has seen better days - it's been partly filled in during repointing - as well as being well hidden by some ironwork. The OS description (NW FACE WALL 2.7M SW WALL JUNC SW SIDE HENBURY HIL) is rather odd, not mentioning the very obvious archway Image at all, although it is on the archway's brickwork that it is situated.
