Glaisdale, Methodist church

The church is on the northside of the dale road. Cut into the 2nd course of stone and on a buttress which faces the road is a benchmark.

Glaisdale, Methodist church

A wider angle showing the complete church on the northside of the dale road. Cut into the 2nd course of stone and on the gable end which faces the road is a benchmark. It is just beyond the steps and the flourishing bracken.

This benchmark is cut into the north facing side wall of the parish church. It is cut about 3 foot from ground level.

Glaisdale, St Thomas's

There is a benchmark cut into the north facing side wall of the parish church. It is towards the left side of this wall, and to the immediate left of a small door, which isn't shown in this picture.
