- BOUNDARY STONE (Post Medieval - 1540 AD to 1900 AD)
Protected Status/Designation
- None recorded
Full Description
There is a boundary stone situated here on the 2nd edition 25" OS map of c. 1900, so it presumably pre-dates this map. (1)
A concrete post with 'Wirksworth' on one side and 'Ashleyhay' on the other side. It was perhaps a replacement of an earlier post. The post is situated on the east side of Derby Road, on a bridge. There is a slight chip on the Wirksworth side. (2)
The boundary stone is still marked on modern OS mapping [2011]. (3)
