| Reverse description | The central field features two dates, 1782 and 1878, separated by a horizontal line within a beaded inner circle, commemorating the start and completion of the drainage adit. A circular legend surrounds the inner circle, framed by an outer beaded border; the text is oriented so it reads from the bottom upward, with a small six-pointed star serving as a separator. |
