Yes, the grid reference is given as SD 649 272 rather than SU 649 272. I noticed that the grid ref for Pleasington Priory is SD 64790 27317, so not that far away. Nothing on the OS maps though.

As far as i can see the current coordinates of the database obviously are incorrect. The Map Ref used by the MP deviates from the one given by the submitter of the photos.
