Post Office Telegraphs cable joint marker
VR-era (1897-1901) telegraph cable joint marker, at 179 Watling Street, Towcester. The marker indicates the position of a joint in the buried telegraph cable. Originally numerals would indicate the distance in feet and inches directly in front of the marker. This one is unusual in being placed on private property. It's likely the steps were built around it. Less than half the post is visible above ground. The cable route is the original London-Birmingham route, the first long-distance underground telegraph route in the UK. A large number of these markers remain in Towcester, swapping sides of the A5 several times.
