Very observant. I never noticed a "made in India" manhole cover around here before.

The word Deptford leapt out at me, a bit of Googling found J.W.Stone Ltd Deptford, who must have cast this nearly 100 years ago, and still going strong

Someone has been decorating the womanhole covers in the 10th arrondissement in Paris. I need to get a picture of one.

I meant to explain that the firm of TCR King was wound up in 1903, when its founder died, so this old cover has lasted well.

I am slapping myself aside my head because I was hoping to find an Edinburgh representation and lo and behold there it is among the many other fine, very fine representations by others most especially the Mexican contingent. I have an image of the trio , heads down scouring the expanse. A most pleasant surprise!!!! No slackers here!
