The last post in this list, Post 217 has not been found but is described as being on the bank of the Thames. This post is about 9 miles from the point opposite Post 217 on the North bank and about 5 miles from the nearest point on the bank. Why the vast gap? Have all the posts disappeared?
Some possibly have disappeared but I think the answer is also that this area was very marshy and there were few roads through it.
