Thanks Dave Rowland for the picture of the Coal Tax Post. The post at Chadwell Heath is about 9' tall. It is a basic stone structure more what you might find in a graveyard. Until a few years ago there were the remains of a cast plate attached. I'll stick with 'Coal Tax Post' until I hear something more convincing! It is nearer to what was the general view of long gone Drivers who always had a great knowledge of the areas outside the Railway in which they they worked. They were always good at pointing out the areas where famous people lived or where notable events had occurred.
