The location is Roy Grove, a small cul-de-sac off Hanworth Road, Hampton named after Major General William Roy. Behind the railings can be glimpsed some of the buildings of the Lady Eleanor Holles school. The cannon set into the ground marks one end of the original Ordnance Survey baseline - I am also submitting a supplemental picture to this square which will carry full details of this monument.
