County Boundary Marker set in the parapet of an unnamed bridge, over Carrant Brook, on the northeast side of the B4080 Bredon Road. Tewkesbury parish. Inscribed DISTRICT vertically, on the left-hand side, with the reminder illegible. Until 1964 this was the boundary of Tewkesbury parish, Gloucestershire, and Bredon parish, Worcestershire. However, Bredon parish was in Tewkesbury Poor Law Union, Rural Sanitary District and Rural District until 1933, so an inscription including the word 'District' wouldn't have denoted a district council boundary until 1933.
