What is recorded here
Milestone or milepost in Blackford is a county boundary stone fixed into a wall since 1818. Whatever neighbourly argument prompted that degree of commitment, ‘we’ll move it a foot and say no more’ was clearly off the table.
Wall-mounted limestone monolithic county boundary stone, dated 1818.
