No flagstaff visible. Nothing obvious for centre. Looks like building has been extensively modified or rebuilt. OS has all trig elements logged as destroyed. This would appear to be correct.

http://www.dorsetlife.co.uk/2012/08/what-the-sandbanks-milkman-saw-tony-ohara/ 'Tony remembers: ‘There was a big stir when they built what became known as The Glass House, next to Sandbanks Hotel. People came from miles around to look at it, but it looks very tame compared to what has been built there in recent times. Even then though the locals were complaining all the old cottages were being pulled down and replaced by blocks of flats – when they built Dune Crest on Banks Road you could buy a flat for £20,000 and have the beach at the bottom of the garden.'

OS records all components of this trig destroyed October 1973. Possibly current building with the same name is a redevelopment of the original.

no tower now as far as I can see, not on any intersectable sense.

SU31 T055 CENTRE, FLAGSTAFF and BOLT. All reported destroyed 10/73 but the building is still there with tower still remaining, despite the rest of the building having had extensive remodelling works.
