Nice photo Mick. The amount of stone that is below ground level is heavier than the amount above. The weight of one gatepost would be about 1800lbs.

Thanks Maureen and Mick I did find it on Google earth. Mind you when I lived in beech hill I never ventured down that end cos I had no clogs

Maureen, perhaps Derek couldn't be a matchstalk man?? Just a thought.

Maureen, back in the day there were a lot of fights in certain areas by people wearing clogs. they kicked the heck out of each other and that part of beech hill was pretty rough
