    This is carved from a lump of Cotswold stone and the eye is set in with lead.
    I had to replace a section of it with cement and stone dust and reset the eye after it was broken by builders when we converted the buildings.

    I don't recognise the logo but am sure someone here does.

    An ancient battery?
