Ordnance Survey documents indicate that a benchmark levelled at 123.682m above Newlyn Datum was verified in 1962 on the wall, which appears to have been rebuilt above its stone bottom layers

Nottingham - NG3
Drivers and pedestrians successfully getting to the top of Porchester Road - the long uphill route from Carlton Road, NG4 (the B686) - are treated to this sight at the junction with Woodborough Rd, although sometimes it is more sunlit. The land and the covered reservoir inside the gate (and perhaps the house too) belong to the Severn Trent Water Authority, although the house appears to have been divided into several flats. To the left of the house the "Mapperley Ridge" radio transmitter can be seen, albeit that it stands on a separate plot of land. The "Water Board" site, the transmitter and the area beyond it, plus the area the left-hand side of this picture are in the NG5 postal area, Porchester Road acting as the boundary.
