And these are two borderstones of unknown origin between bm056 and bm057. Each one has a S on one side and a B on the other. According to Jacques the S links to Sare, the main village to the N in France, the other to Baztan, the Spanish municipality on the other side of the border.
There are 4 of them. Jacques Koleck sent me a picture of a fifth one but the picture showed that is was approximately 200m SW of bm056 and thus not on the borderline.

Intermediate S/B-marker no.1

So this is the first one.

On top of the rocky hill of Atxuria, I couldn't find the unnumbered cross, mentioned in the Treaty.

Still, there are several crosses out there: I have received pictures of Jacques Koleck, Serge Poncet and Robert Darrieumerlou.

This is the geodetic marker on the hilltop

A few meters of this geodetic markers, there is this cross.

Robert Darrieumerlou shows the same cross on this page and two other crosses on the next pages.


And Jacques Koleck kindly sent this picture. He wrote: this cross is difficult to see, it's west of the geodetic marker and there are traces of yellow paint.

By the way: we are looking in the direction of bm057 and 056.

I has a peculiar engraved groove on it with an unknown meaning.
