Stone Stile, Brains Green
Image: © Mr Red Taken: 13 Jun 2023
On the Western side of Cinderford Road with the inscription facing North. In common with many places where the "Royal Forest of Dean" boundary crosses a road there is a plastic bollard with a green sticker bearing the legend "Statutory Boundary". This stone would have been on the other side of the road up to 1920, but at some time road widening (eg) necessitated a safer location on top of the West wall, and curiously set with the inscription facing North. Inscription: D. [F.] / [Nᴼ. 12] / [1832] Milestone Society National ID: GL_DFAWRE12em
