The Millennium Stone
Large block of ironstone in the grounds of East Court, installed in 2000 to commemorate the new millennium and marking the line of the Greenwich Meridian through the site. It was the idea of the artist Liza Jane Stumbke. The plaque reads: "This stone is not only a monument to the Year 2000 but also a tribute to the town’s people, particularly our children and a reminder that they are our future. It is here to be enjoyed, touched and worn away by human contact. I hope that it will transform as a result of our existence."

Stone marking the Greenwich Meridian, East Grinstead
This ironstone block outside the East Grinstead council offices at East Court was supposedly positioned in 2000 on the Greenwich Meridian, zero longitude. However, online maps show it sixty or so metres to the east. Before widespread use of GPS and satellite technology the precise location of the zero longitude was difficult to determine precisely and this may count for the apparent anomaly. The 'Prime Meridian' is etched on the stone and visitors are encouraged to touch to show the effect of wear by human agency over time.
