What is it?

[Richard Brown]

That looks like the front grille on a car or truck

It's not of the front grille. It's not a car nor is it a truck. However it is part of a means of transport.

Here is some more of the object.

Motorbike air cooled cylinder top?

Yes, it is part of a motorbike. Question 1 has been answered.

BTW, the make is truly iconic.

I took these photos at Locks Bottom, south of Bromley, at the start of a May Bank Holiday ride down to Hastings.

Take it away Scifan.

Hi Semel, that one went far more quickly than I expected.

I was going to reveal clues in stages. Stage 1 a photo showing the Corporation of the City of London shield



Then a grid reference to take you to where it is 51 19 30N. 0 3 47E. Where you should find the word "Boundary"

Then, if no one had it, the final reveal gives the statutory reference




This links to their history etc. http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/Corp...ure/Local_history_and_heritage/coal_posts.htm

Well done. The challenge is yours
