HER Number:MDV126274
Name:Boundary stone on Burley Down, Lewtrenchard

Summary

Current site of a boundary stone which is marked on historic mapping on the parish boundary between Bridestowe and Lewtrenchard some 100 metres to the north-east. The stone is inscribed 'H' on one side and 'C' or 'G' on another. The initials suggest the stone marked a land holding rather than parish boundary although the two coincide at the stone's original location.
