Description

2002-2006. Field survey. Signpost of the 1920s to 1930s of cast iron. It may be a product of Stanton Ironworks although no makers' name is visible. It has a circular section tapered post with decorated with ring mouldings and outward flair below arms. The finial is an ogee on a ball moulding. There are three wooden arms with square ends (replaced original rounded end arms in 2004) bolted to metal carriers reading (1) MANUDEN (2) STANSTED (3) BENTFIELD END / GREEN. A fourth carrier does not appear to have been used to hold an arm. <1>
