Summary[edit]

Description
English: Gas pipeline marker in woodland. At this location, a line of these conspicuous markers cross a woodland clearing, indicating the course of a high-pressure gas pipeline.

Their colour and design vary a great deal, depending on the type of pipeline and the company that owns it (see the end of this article). All such marker designs are intended to be as highly visible from the air as from the ground, thus aiding aerial inspection. The ones shown here indicate the course of an Ineos gas pipeline.

The direction of view here is along the line of posts; another marker lies at the far edge of the clearing seen here, although it is too distant in this shot to be visible as anything more than a tiny orange spot.
