Quiz of the WeeK?

The two round structures, that have these markers next to them, are the circular one’s seen on the corners on the East side of the building in the centre of the attached.

used for storing water, for fire fighting.

Have you answered your own question, maybe?

I have taken many photos of boundary markers around airfields and other military and govt sites, Tower Hill is no exception, as having just googled Boundary Marker images, the very same ones are displayed.

Some of these markers date back a fair old time, and apparently its becoming fashionable to include them in geocaching ! 🙂

Dont I get a pat on the back for identifying them as boundary markers then? 🙂

I’m not so sure they’re boundary markers per se, rather, marking the two structures that they’re placed against. I could be wrong though.

I know where. They’re down by the Tower of London. This one is on Tower Hill, just behind the Tower gifte-shoppe-thingy. As to what, I’m not at all sure either, but I may know a man who does know – I’ve asked him…

Is that not the entrance to the original Tower Subway?

Spot on! Well done that man. One on each, of two corners of Tower Vaults, next to the Tower of London. I’m led to believe that Tower Vaults are what’s left of a building that was destroyed by a high explosive bomb in 1940. Quite what the structures are I’m not sure, but I have seen similar elsewhere, used for storing water, for fire fighting.

It is definitely a boundary Marker. WD although generally taken to be War Department, does also refer to government bounds or boundarys, usually military structures. A similar set of these can be found around tower hill in London.

Ordnance survey benchmarks have the same government arrow, but the marker in the photograph isn’t an OS benchmark.

The arrow symbol looks more like an Ordnance Survey datum point than a WD Crows foot.

There is no painting on the lef hand side of this structure.
I’m not too sure of the ‘What?’ myself, but obviously know the ‘Where?’
I can tell you that there is an identical structure & marker approx 45.5m away from this one.

Keep the guesses coming, I will reveal the location later this week if not guessed before.

Ok, my eyesight isn’t the best but is that a painting on the left hand side of the second picture depicting a mushroom cloud? I can take the howls of laughter if it is something else altogether!

A Boundary marker but where?..gawd knows!
