OS database has a more detailed description: STANMOOR[sic] BR NE SIDE RD NE FACE JUNC WALL.
Assuming that NE face means the 'outside' of the NE wall, the designated height of 1m below ground level would place the FB in an inaccessible position amongst thick brambles in a private field. The FB could not be seen by looking over the parapet (although there was another metal sign of some kind fixed to the brickwork)
