Summary edit
| Description |
English: Bench mark on Chatterton House This bench mark is on the corner of Church Lane and Hospital Street. It probably does not date to the First Geodetic Levelling survey 1851-1858, on the survey line between Newcastle under Lyme and Chester, as it was originally recorded as being on the corner of a house, and the height of this one above ground level is quite a bit higher than the early mark. The modern O.S database has it on the corner of the Lamb Hotel and records suggest that there has been a hotel on this site since the 16th century, and that this 'Lamb Hotel' was only built in 1861, which would be too late for the first survey. The building has now been redeveloped into apartments, shops, and a restaurant - Costa Coffee in 2009. The bench mark is behind the lamppost on the corner, and there is an interesting local website that records some of the recent changes to the building: http://www.dabbersnantwich.me.uk/the_lamb.htm |
