types; 'double plate', with arched head, projecting rim, cast
raised lettering on face, 'NRC' (New River Company), 2 fixed,
at angle, in ground; 'milestone', slightly tapered with curved

The new cut to the Lee on the King's Meads was made c1837,
although the Gauge House (qv) was not built until 1856. The
property markers appear to date from that period. They do not
appear to be set out to a definite pattern.
