Old GPO telephone cable marker (2), close up
For location, see Image . At the top of the cast iron post is a crown and the initials ER - pretty sure this dates it to the reign of Edward VII (1901-1910). Originally there would have been numbers attached showing the distance in feet and inches to a buried telephone cable or junction. The arrow symbol was an official identifier of government property. At the time this was installed much of the telephone network in the UK, including all trunk lines, was run by the General Post Office http://www.britishtelephones.com/histuk.htm . Later cable markers (made of concrete) had 'GPO' stamped upon them - see Image .
