Description

This is a lettered stone, likely marking a former mineral rights boundary, located on the west side of the old road beside an engine house. It dates from the 19th century and is made of granite. The stone is a small round-headed post with an inscription on its face that reads: F -- 10. The history of this stone is not known, but it is probably associated with the mine that was situated at this location.
