A boundary stone has been kept and respected by some creative ironmongery. Interestingly, the modern boundaries appear to have been shifted, as this stone is no longer on it. Indeed, the older maps indicate the edge of the city ran through here from centuries ago but were altered post-war as the suburban sprawl increased. Presumably, 'B P' refers to Bishopsworth Parish.
