A PEEK AT RICHLAND COUNTY’S
HIGHEST ELEVATION--

Above is the top of a US Coast and Geodetic Survey monument located along Lexington Ontario Road south of Noblet Road in Springfield Township. It is one of several hundred in the county and they record a precise location or elevation used by engineers, surveyors, mapmakers, etc.

Saturday, Fogeyisms will visit this monument as part of our story dealing with the highest elevation in our county. This monument was established in 1959 to identify this location, which just happens to be close to the highest elevation known. We hope you will come along and enjoy our exploration.
