The OS benchmark that sits in the garden wall of Lawrence House (No.32) Main Road, Ketley Bank, Telford. It is a 3rd Order benchmark that was last verified by the OS in 1961. The OS records indicate that the benchmark is 0.6-metres above the ground. The wall has been re-built and along with its height above the ground suggests that it has been moved.
