Summary
One stone is a dressed granite post 0.7m high, 0.35m wide and 0.2m thick with the letters 'WD' above the number '42' inscribed in its S face. Immediately N of the adjacent field bank is a roughly shaped granite post 0.75m high, 0,3m wide and 0.15m thick bearing the initial 'P' in its N face.
The dressed stone is one of 46 marking the edge of the military owned property in the Willsworthy area (Brewer, 1986) while the other probably marks the boundary of Peter Tavy and Lydford parishes.
