It is a stone monument in the central separation zone (it is a little park rather than a separation zone) at the top exit of Nishiohashi Station on the Nagahori Tsurumi Ryokuchi Subway Line. It was also accompanied by a neat explanation and was maintained.

A monument of townspeople astronomers in the Edo period

Original Text

Hazama Chogai was a townspeople astronomer in the Edo period. Currently, I use the solar calendar, but in the Edo period it was the lunar calendar. Therefore, the actual operation of the sky sun and the calendar were very different. At that time, it was important to know the weather because the collection of nengu by agriculture was the center of the economy. Although he was a townspeople, he had a direct visit from the Shogunate due to his excellent astronomical observation technology, but he refused this. However, I made astronomical observations in such a place ...

It is located in the square of the central separation zone.

Original Text

Mr. Managaya was a townspeople who ran a quality and merchant ... but at the time when the error between the calendar and the sun was terrible, the shogunate also started the calendar and Mr. Nagaya participated in this. I refused to invite the shogunate to be a shogunate, and instead received an observation instrument. However, on the day he carried out the observation, it seems that the area around Nagahori-dori was completely closed to the shogunate direct 々. It is located in the central separation zone, a little closer to Nishi Nagahori from the Nishi-Ohashi intersection of Nagahori Dori street.

There is no remains. Only monuments and inscriptions in the central separation zone.

When I left Nishiohashi Subway Station, there was a central separation zone, which was a bicycle parking lot. If you look closely, there was a monument in one corner. There was only a monument on the site here, and there were no remains. However, there is an explanation board next to the monument, which can be said to be fulfilling for a point only for the monument.
