Sometimes it helps to know what you're looking for and exactly where to look.

I should really have taken a context photo .... but I would have been run over.

I am always on the lookout for an Ordnance Survey benchmark whilst out walking. These little beauties are dotted all over the place and were an essential part in mapping. This one is on a bridge in the Wiltshire village of Pitton.
