Nuneaton Fundamental Benchmark
Nuneaton Fundamental Benchmark. In a hedge on the north side of Camp Hill Road about 70m from the junction with Mancetter Road. FBMs are the key to the whole levelling of the UK. This is just the top of a fairly extensive underground structure on bedrock. These highly accurate height stations are still used today as the baseline to levelling. This fundamental bench mark was established in 1913 during the second geodetic levelling of England & Wales, and was levelled with a height of 459.8170 feet (140.1522 metres) above mean sea level (Newlyn datum). It was included on the Melbourne to Nuneaton and Warwick to Nuneaton levelling lines.

Sadly uncared for Fundamental Benchmark
Despite occupying a fairly prominent position, you could easily pass by this benchmark, specially fenced off to prevent damage to the structure.
