Old GPO telephone cable marker (3), close up
For situation see Image .
There would have been numbers attached to this iron post, indicating the distance in feet and inches to an underground telephone cable or junction.
Presumably installed during the reign of Edward VII (1901-1910), as the initials ER appear around the crown at the top. At the bottom of the post is an arrow, which was used to denote government property (including prisoners' uniforms).
When this marker was installed, the General Post Office (GPO) owned most of the telephone network in the UK. Later cable markers were made of concrete, and had 'GPO' stamped upon them - see Image .
Disappointingly, the back of this marker was plain rusty metal with no writing on it.
