Brassey Tribute Stones, Bulkeley

The four sandstone pillars connected by iron straps originally encircled an oak tree at The Grange in Bulkeley. They were placed to commemorate the fortieth birthday of local railway builder, Thomas Brassey (1805-70), who inherited and rebuilt The Grange in 1843. In April 2007, the stones were relocated to the Marl Pit site, a small area of access land beside the A534, and the commemorative sign was installed.
