I have added this one, as I used to live in the area close to it. The problem is that I only have coordinates in the older hours, degree, minutes style. I used an online conversion to spit out some coordinates, but it's placed it somewhere in Asia! Could someone help fix it?

Sorted, 'cos it's W the longitude is minus. Not all the online converters bother to show this...

Well, it's a hell of a lot closer than it was Simon.

I have the coordinates from sticking a pin in Google Earth, so I suspect the conversion is going tit's-up somewhere. It's a mile or 2 NE of where it should be. I'll watch out for the minus being missed next time. Next time I get over there, I'll be in it. I'll get the survey added in a bit.

Cheers for the link too Lister, duly bookmarked.
