Nice addition to our list of visited markers along Delaware boundary. While the Calvert coat of arms is well known thanks to the MD flag, this was the first time we became aquainted with the Penn coat of arms.

My first benchmark!!!
of course, this one was not hard to find. I didn't even know I was looking for it. I went to visit the lighthouse with my dad and brother on a trip up the Eastern Shore and saw the disk here, so I made sure to log it.- teamday -

This reference mark disk was found in good condition as described, atop the Transpeninsular Line monument stone just south of the Fenwick Island Lighthouse. The 252 year old monument is part of a line that was surveyed to settle a boundary dispute between the Penns and the Calverts, and which established the middle point of the peninsula. The historic description was adequate to locate the mark, but the following changes should be noted: State Road 14 is now State Highway 1, and the sand road is now paved and is labeled 146th Street.Zhanna and Aaron

The south side of the stone bears the coat of arms of the Calverts.
