This WD BS #14 is set into the south east corner pillar of Imphal Barracks on the east side of Fulford Road. It is one of a set of 16 stones that once surrounded the large split military site. Some stones have gone, some I have missed, and some are still within secure MOD property. I have photographed just six of the existing stones. The inscription "5 in West" refers to the fact that the base of the wall flares out slightly, so the boundary is actually five inches further out than the face of the pillar.
