The building shown really is the old section house, and the benchmark really is in line with the southwest wall (pretty much). One can walk right up to this one. This is the second time we've looked for this one. A lady at the community hall pointed out the section house to us (she thought it was the old station, but it looks more like a section house and is not situated where a station should be), which made everything fall into place.
