A list of caches within 500m of London Coal Tax posts

What are coal tax posts? They are markers that were erected in the 19th century to mark the boundary where coal and wine tax became due on goods entering London.

The commonest posts are white painted cast iron posts beside roads, railways and canals, but there are some other types such as granite obelisks.
