This stone was once part of the village stocks. The slot shows on the front of the stone. It is on the Calderdale Way footpath off Northfield Terrace. The eroded legend is TO/HARWORTH/ hand pointing right. A plate at the base of the stone says, 'Stocks originally in Towngate. Removed in 19th century to a site in front of present Stocks Villa, finally taken down in 1875'. Grade II listed.
