Image: © Rossographer Taken: 6 Jul 2011
An old stone sited beside the Commercial Buildings in Waring Street, Belfast. It appears to be very old and is heavily marked & weathered. Purpose unknown, but most likely it is a corner protector sited here to protect the building from cartwheels; a less likely theory is that this is an old milestone - mileposts from Belfast were measured from this location, known as the "Four Corners" at the junction of Waring Street, North Street, Donegall Street and Bridge Street.
