Egham Causeway
The elevated pavement is what is left of an old causeway which leads from The Hythe at Staines to The Glantly at Egham. It was built in the 13th century in the reign of Henry III (1216 – 1272) by a merchant named Thomas de Oxenford. This was for the safe conveyance of his wool and other merchandise to and from London markets. The causeway supported a road above the Egham flood-plain and also acted as a dyke to protect the surrounding area from flooding. Some sources also credit de Oxenford for building a bridge over the River Thames from Staines to Egham Hythe in the early 13th century.

Coal tax boundary post no.84, by River Park Avenue
The location of this post is shown in Image and Image See also Image There were originally nearly 280 coal tax posts located around London, of which about 210 are still extant; around 180 of these (85%) are 3 ft high white-painted square bollards with a pyramidal top, decorative raised bands, and the shield from the City of London’s arms, like this one. Photos of the coal tax posts on Geograph are at http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=86542993&page=1 . The posts were erected under the Coal and Wine Duties (Continuation) Act of 1861 to mark the points at which duty had to be paid on coal being transported to London. The boundary was set at that of the Metropolitan Police District, and the resulting revenue was used by the Corporation of the City of London to fund public works. For further info see http://www.coaldutyposts.org.uk/cityposts.html . This coal tax post is Grade II listed https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1028955 .
