The stone plaque is in fair to poor condition and is difficult to read due to an iron/steel strap that runs across it. Some parts, bottom corners, of the face have been lost and have just been made good with a cement mix. One of the bolts, holding the strap, is affixed into the plaque.
The plaque, with difficulty, reads:
"165 The Boundary Line / St.P.P. extends / 35ft 6 ins eastwards / xxx the face of this st xxx / 1853".
Where "xxx" represents missing letters.
"St.P.P." represents St Pancras Parish.
