Inscription

Stone Walk
In memory of Les Stone a founder of the Creekmouth Preservation Society.
Environment Agency

Site: Les Stone (1 memorial)

IG11, River Road, Stone Walk

This sign was in place in 2018 - May 2019 but had gone by November 2020. In 2018 there was a second identical sign further along Stone Walk but Google Maps satellite view cannot tell us whether that is still in place or not.
