Now worn away, this was originally inscribed on this 'Plague Stone'. Lepers, and those infected by plague would come to this place to buy food, placing the coins in the hollow at the top which was filled with disinfecting vinegar.
The fella just out of shot asked me where the plaque was that told the history of the bridge, www.flickr.com/gp/199497344@N03/wSuGJHuR89,
so I showed him as I was walking that way, anyway.
