Municipal Boundary Marker on Monk Stray between the A1036 Malton Road and Stockton Lane in York. Historic England date this to the early 19C but it was perhaps erected when part of Heworth parish was taken within the city boundary in 1884. In 1894 this became the boundary between Heworth Within and Heworth Without parishes. Heworth Within became part of York parish in 1900 and in 1934 the city absorbed the part of Heworth Without to the northeast of the stone.
