In its cosy cot surrounded by rubbish and someone done some fly tipping as well. Couldn't find the cache for all you geocachers out there.

Condition good, but enclosure used for garden waste disposal, and also an old pushchair on top of the block. See http://rogertempleman.multiply.com/photos/album/16/Fundamental_Bench_Marks#photo=3
