The CC Trig Point bagger thread, now incorporating other interesting geographs

A few finds on a stroll around Devizes, Wiltshire, whilst I was supposed to be working, yesterday.

A worn BM, with bolt, on the Corn Exchange.

A plaque to say how much the farmers appreciated the Land Girls during, and after, the war, also on the Corn Exchange.

The Corn Exchange.

A decent BM on the museum.

A nice boot scraper, also on the museum, I think.

And, finally, a utility plaque on, I'm sure, Bridewell Street.

As far as I can tell Draughton church has two benchmarks I discovered this morning.

One old and one newer .

 

[Drago]

Railway bridge just north of Blisworth.

@biggs682 bagged this one a few weeks ago.

Near the railway cottages at Blisworth.

Underground oil pipeline marker...

Warning signs nearby telling me i was under surveillance etc , my backside. Still, it's a strategic asset soi can understand why they'd be touchy.

Opposite the City Ground, Nottingham this morning

 

[PeteXXX]

Quite a lot of stuff in Belper as I was having a stroll instead of working..

A decent cut mark on Rose Cottage.

Would anyone act notice roadsigns like this now? I doubt it!

A nice clear cut mark on the Coop funeral parlour Wall.

I was looking for a pivot on the Belper gunshop wall, but it seems to have been cladded over, sadly, but this cared for utility plaque kind of makes up for it.

A rare old police telephone, built into the wall of the War Memorial Park (the actual Memorial is visible behind it.)

And, finally, the wonderfully tended Memorial Park.

One I have ridden past loads of times and never noticed it until this morning and quite close to @Drago land .

On the back road between Stoke Goldington and Ravenstone .

The Utility buildings quite often have a cut mark on them. Even the newish housing estate ones have them. They do seem to be 'Friday afternoon' jobs, though, and are quite poor quality,even near Dragoland!!
