A rare old city and county boundary post on the junction of Staplehill Road and Thicket Road. The boundary was actually a short distance to the east of the post, though is now much further today. See Image] for a context view. Incidentally, Bristol was made a city and county in its own right by a charter by Edward III in 1373.
