Gallery of log for Waller

25-Jan-18
Another style of trig for the day and I've never seen anything quite like this before. I suspect it has been moved as the 1972 survey shows it right in the fenceline, with the fence deviating around it. The fence is now straight with the trig outside of the line.
One side of the post has a government broad arrow chiseled into it, indicating it marked a corner or boundary line of crown land. If nothing else, it indicates how well the post has lasted.
The vanes have "Waller" and "Soutar" pressed into them. The latter, a Scottish surname, is perhaps that of the original surveyor.
Overall, it's not in great condition but it's surprising that it's survived so long and it's certainly quaint.
