Bench Mark, Craigavon
Image: © Rossographer Taken: 3 Aug 2025
Bench mark on the A27 Mandeville Road at Craigavon (under the railings at Image). Unusual - there is a line of marks between Lurgan and Portadown running along the roadside and all of them appear to be on small concrete plinths at the side of the road. I looked for a few others and couldn't see anything - this one appears to have a faint arrow cut into the plinth, but nothing else (I would have expected a bolt or rivet on top). The coordinates are right and I have cross-checked with the OSNI Spatial website https://maps.spatialni.gov.uk/ . The mark has been levelled to 33.69m above MSL Belfast.
