Boundary stones were often erected to show where the responsibility for highway maintenance changed, and this one is inscribed 'HIGHWAY DIVISION' The place names have been defaced, presumably when part of Clifton was transferred to Spenborough UDC, but appear to be 'SCHOLES' on the left (as too short for 'Cleckheaton') and 'CLIFTON' on the right.
