Old milepost, Margaretting
On the old main road to London, a Roman route although not very straight in this area. Nevertheless straight enough, as placing Chelmsford at 29 miles from London compares well with the railway's 29.75 miles from Chelmsford station to Liverpool Street. The current A12 is longer because of bypassing. Note how the spelling deviates from current practice: a 't' dropped in Margaretting, an 'e' dropped in Ingatestone. Either a true record, or bad spelling, or perhaps the pattern maker was just pushed for space.

Spread Eagle inn sign
The remarkable thing about this 2012 view is that the pub, actually on the other side of the road, was burnt out some years ago and has now been demolished, with the site up for sale. There were two more inn signs in the more usual portrait format on and by the pub, but with the same portrayal of a Sea Eagle.

Site of Spread Eagle pub
Burnt out in 2009, still a burnt-out shell in 2011, but now demolished and the site is for sale with permission for residential development. Remarkably, the inn sign on this side of the road survives.
