This TP is not the usual shape, or appearance. It has no flush bracket. However, it is shown on the map as a TP, and the brass centre is engraved with "Ordnance Survey" and the lat/long (sadly illegible). The nearby map in the NT car park describes it as a "Toposcope (direction pointer)" It shows the direction and distance (in miles) to nearby places, eg "Tunbridge Wells 10", "Dover 53". Sadly the engravings are quite worn.
