OS benchmark - Kingsbury, 'The Granary' cottage
Located on the wall of one of the converted former Kingsbury Mill buildings, this OS flush bracket was last levelled in 1964 at 65.93m above Ordnance Datum Newlyn. Older maps show an early benchmark on another building in the complex, but that appears to no longer exist.
(The random collection of cabling is part of an electric vehicle charging installation on the house)

River Tame, Hemlingford
Looking Northwest along the River Tame which has just passed under the reconstructed Hemlingford Bridge. (see Image])
The River Tame used to be one of the most polluted rivers in Britain, thanks mainly to its origins and course through industrial Birmingham, however now it is quite clean and supports a good number of fish.

The Replacement Hemlingford Bridge
The old Hemlingford Bridge washed away after a storm some 25 years ago - I took some photos at the time and will have to try to find them. The new bridge is quite stunningly unattractive compared to the C18th one it replaces.
For views of the river at this point see Image] and Image]

River Tame & part of Water Park
The old gravel workings besides the River Tame in Kingsbury have long been full of water and are nowadays a water park. One of the lakes can just be glimpsed beyond the course of the river. See also Image] for another view of the river.
