++++ bring in write up from wip_nor and link to link

Post 6 should be in the hedge just to the left of the sign but I could see no trace of it. Note seam in road surface.

Hog Hill Road. Apparently, lurking in the vegetation near the speed limit sign there is the Collier Row stone, one of the Hainault Forest boundary stones. The write-up says a "lamp post … was digitally removed". I presume by "lamp post" they actually mean the speed limit sign.

TQ 446 984 At the point where Debden Lane, Loughton becomes Loughton Lane, Theydon Bois.
Opposite an house called “The Boundary”.
The retro-reflective sign in this picture says “Theydon Bois”

TL 437 004 Epping Road, Epping
about 500 metres SW of the Bell Common Tunnel

Three decent sized images in this this blog post. On the course of Potters Bar Golf Club - closed in 2018.
(A director fringe golf club closing! This forum thread makes one suggestion: “For a long time it was a Jewish-only course . It probably left it too late to try and change.”)

The Queen's Head public house (now apparently closed) stands 50 yards to the east of this post on the corner of Coursers Road and High Street, London Colney. The entry at Historic England for the pub says “canted front bay said to have been used for the collection of Coal Tax”.

TL 175 032 Shenley Lane, London Colney South side of Broad Colney Bridge

Harper Lane, Shenley Midway between these two Tax Posts. Just a post to announce that this is No. 100 but nice echoes of Tax Posts.
Cab drivers on night shift wish that all houses showed their numbers as clearly as this.

The house where W. S. Gilbert lived and died. (Cannot think of any connection with Coal Tax Posts!)

TQ 131 926, E side of Oxhey Lane, outside No 1 "The Hollies" and immediately NW of Burntoak Farm

I cannot now recall where exactly I took this photo but I am pretty sure it is just the opposite side of the path from Obelisk 52. The railway at this point is the Metropolitan Line between Northwood and Moor Park. I cannot see why London County Council Tramways should need this box - more than an hundred yards from the nearest tram tracks.

I walked about 200m either side of TQ 084 923 and saw nothing

Gates to Moor Park Mansion at TQ 078 925

Moor Park Mansion itself, TQ 074 932

The seam in the road surface indicates that this is still a boundary - between Hillingdon on the left and Three Rivers district of Hertfordshire. TQ 078 923

TQ 069 915 at the junction of White Hill and Jackets Lane. Nothing seen

Sewage pumping station. See Sewage flows again as Rickmansworth street floods.

Stockers House. Martin Nail lists this as Post 218 but we will show it more in geographical sequence.

The building just left of centre is Stockers House.

Stockers House below Stocker's Lock No. 82, Grand Union Canal near Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire, England. The house appears on the extreme left in this image. In the foreground is a Coal Tax post listed as No. 218 in this list.
The house was built in 1861-2 by the City of London Corporation for the inspector of coal traffic on the canal. The height is explained because its site is on the downstream side of the lock and there was a need to be able to see boats approaching from the upstream side. Listed Building No. 1173911.

A collection of old tools on display beside the lock plus an old sign with the stern warning the towing path is private property … there is no public right of way. In fact most canal towpaths are not rights of way but "permissive paths".
