Two sandshoes and a step.

Looks maybe a guide mark? masons mark?

but CBM is on the parapet which I couldn't see but some bits are replaced

We should bang our heads together, I see Gravity Added has something well back in the thread but I'm a black sheep as I don't have a Steelie

Size 10 at the side for comparsion purposes. About an 1/8 inch high.

Possible answer been given, so daft it must be true.
"On their own, as pictured, they're markers for partially sighted/blind who can use them to work out which way to go(That's the reason for the marks & orientation).

In groups, tactile paving.

The 15 year old ones are used on the "Beast O'Burden", with a pair of 17 year old for use in Ireland.

They're less than a year old.

By no means, all are welcome. Though it may be some time before some further contributions here, as the podiatrist decided to operate on my foot yesterday, no big deal, able to walk, one down, one to go, maybe some better trig bagging opportunities after that.

The lady concerned does some hoeing and keeping the flower bed areas tidy, she explained she just does this voluntary, it was looking neat and tidy. Impressed.
As I possibly said earlier, if I can't see what I'm looking for,
I don't prowl.
There's more than a few to hunt.
I've been having a break from it, back with a vengeance soon.

Around here, if I saw someone round about the church, they may have to endure a long-winded explication of the historical and architectural highlights of the structure and attached edifices, as well as a look at the restored and preserved stained glass from the original church, and the memorial lectern and modern period(mid 20th Century ) stained glass, and the very original and interesting pipe organ. Before you even got to the manse on the back of the property.Oh, and the walnut tree that died(or was given up for dead) three times, and then came back to life three times

Yes, but I can't find a convincingly large enough dagger to clench in my teeth for authenticity.

North Bridge Station, goods entrance.

The odder one(Railway Bench & Boundary Mark) has been removed. Replaced with more modern kerbstones.

Ladies and Gentlemen, behold the Benchmark Batmobile...

As befits bagging tradition, the frame is steel, in this case a 1996 4130 Saracen frame, freshly powder coated in black.

Components salvaged from various stashes, and where possible they too are black.

Dynohub lighting, 2 x 7 gears, and a plethora of various mid matched cast offs.

Fast is ain't, comfortable it is. A mere thing like the absence of tarmac won't keep me away from those Trigs, Benchmarks or Historic Markers.
