Marker for the Tower Liberties "Beating the Bounds" ceremony

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Number 23 of the original 31 markers (surviving 22) setting the boundary of the Tower Liberties "Beating the Bounds" ceremony. It stands towards the eastern edge of Tower Hill Garden on Tower Hill, London. The W.D. stands for War Department. The Broad Arrow symbol denotes ownership by the Board of Ordinance. At a cursory glance it appears to be made of stone but is actually made of iron as the patch of rust top right shows. The bottom inscription reads 87 feet east which suggests the actual boundary is across Minories and inside the building 41 Tower Hill. This marker is not one of the 22 listed by Historic England.
