Flush Bracket, Holywood
Flush bracket located on the northern tip of High Street Presbyterian Church in Holywood Image
The number on the bracket is OSNIBM 1002.
The mark is 9.12 metres above MSL.
A flush bracket is a type of bench mark set onto the face of a building. See also http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=11037856 for many other examples I have found.
This is the oldest extant flush bracket in Ireland. OSNI produced an initial run of flush brackets numbered 1001-1025 that were used c1932-1936; of these, 21 were sited in the greater Belfast area and 4 in County Londonderry - 3 (all now destroyed) in the Toome area and 1 in Portstewart - see Image The oldest bracket, numbered 1001, was sited at Image but has unfortunately been destroyed. OSNI later used flush brackets in much greater numbers for the retriangulation and levelling of Northern Ireland in the 1950s and early 1960s.

High Street Presbyterian Church, Holywood
Opened in February 1858, the church was designed by Robert Young (of Young and Mackenzie); the local builder was Samuel Moore of Morrow's Lane with plasterwork by William Hayes of Marino. The church has just emerged from an extensive restoration to the external stonework which, thankfully, left a flush bracket on the wall undamaged - see Image

Tyre depot, Holywood (September 2016)
For many Holywood is associated with coffee shops, restaurants, art galleries and estate agents. It has some “ordinary” business too. This tyre depot is at Church View. I have no connection with the trader.
