Parish Boundary at Stoneclough

The boundary between districts can be identified on maps as a man made feature. Here the boundary between the Parish of Dean and the Parish of Prestwich can be seen on the stone on the west side of the footbridge over the River Irwell. Shouldn't the stone be in the middle of the bridge since most boundary lines run down the centre of a river?
