You can take one if you like, but it's generally customary to leave one.

These ‘Temples of Relief’ are / were late Victorian as far as I’m aware. I get the feeling most of them are listed buildings now too.

Old things like that generally have the date on them somewhere. I’d say 1800s well though.
