OS Benchmarking - Reigate and Redhill

YOU WILL NEED to read the blog on OS Benchmarking to understand what this is all about.    Look to the right hand filters and click on "OS Benchmarking" to find the first blog which will give an explanation.   You can then break this down to areas (as I go and manage to build this up a bit more).

When I learned about Ordnance Survey benchmarking I was about to go off for a weekend in Reigate, Surrey.   I was explaining it to my friend, Mark Davison, and he had not heard of them.   During the weekend we did a 14km trails walk, on the way back we arrived on Redhill Common, and back into Reigate.   Here, we started the search and found four.

Rivet Stone
Location: Redhill Top Common j/w High Trees Road.
Height: 144.555m 

You can see the symbol embossed into the stone on the top.






Embossed wall
Location: High Trees Road (middle)
Height: 137.081m

Difficult to locate as it was quite well hidden.

 
Embossed wall
Location: Cronks Hill j/w High Trees Road.
Height: 126.009m

This is on the back of an old letter box, brick built.

 

Embossed wall
Location: Footpath j/w Cockshot Road

Just on the beginning of the footpath.
