E face 0.5m from NE angle of S buttress of bridge over dis canal, in garden of house. In rosebush! Owner said Thames and Severn Canal trust had recently been surveying FBs along disused canl; proposal to restore (this stretch would have to be diverted due to house and quarry).

Found the bridge - its in the garden of Round House Farm. The right of way skirts the property so didn't get to get a close look at the bridge itself.
