Description

This is a cast iron bollard dated 1812, shaped like a tapering cannon and standing about two and a half feet above ground. It features a rounded cap and a moulded band, with the inscription "CLINK 1812" on both the front and back near the top. This indicates that it was likely originally placed in Clink Street, possibly near the prison.

Local climate

Bollard sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 690 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 95% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 98% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 35 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 57% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
