Description

This boundary stone, dating from 1698, was originally used to separate the lands of Thomas, Earl of Thanet, and Stephen Tempest of Broughton Wall. It now marks the division between the parishes of Stirton with Thorlby and Broughton. Made from millstone grit rubble, it stands approximately 75 cm high and is numbered 5 in a series of 41 stones. The east side is inscribed with a "T" for Thanet, while the west side has "ST" for Stephen Tempest. In June 1721, the stone was moved and reset 'twenty yards and a half' within Thanet's land to help protect it from erosion caused by water.
