Cheers buffaloskinnner for the image of the benchmark in your post on Tue Jan 10, 2017 9:41 pm :).

I was in the area today (Jan 12 2017) so I took a photo of the benchmark (BM) to add to my small collection of BMs in Leeds. I hope you do not mind me adding that photo as it shows the BM more clearly than that presumably coming from Google Street View. I have also added a view of the O2 Academy (the old Gaumont cinema) on Cookridge Street with the BM low down just on the left of the doorway. The window shapes in the old building are interesting.
