logging this on the grounds i've just been on holiday in penzance and walked pased it a dozen times. Unfortunately i didn't know it was there as i hadn't done any research before i went. However as its 380 miles from home i doubt i'l be going back just to take a picture

Would have been a direct view to the Newlyn Tide Observatory from here - before the sea wall was as high as it is now.

Cornwall. We used the picture of Mrs Dusty to find this but unfortunately this was not the OS bolt.

Thanks to all the pictures of the location we had no trouble finding this, however I was the only one impressed! After a few crys of "is that it" we headed up the hill to the FBM (TP7224). ELV 15m

Struggled to find it, but stumbled accross it between the bench and the walls as described here and shown in pics. Just a bolt. Looks like it hasn't been there too long, because the walls, benches, etc all look quite modern. Good views. Is this trig related to the "Newlyn" sea level in any way?

Nearly missed this one! Between the bench and the wall (on the left)©jameswameek

Discovered this Bolt a couple of years ago, long before we knew something could be done with the knowledge! It is in a very public place, usually with a lot of people in the area but today was quiet.
