Monument MPM630 - TOWN BOUNDARY STONE AT JUNCTION OF LONDON ROAD AND TORRINGTON ROAD

Town boundary stone dating to 1799, marking the boundary of the old Borough of Portsmouth prior to it being extended in 1832. The stone is a four sided obelisk on a corniced pedestal, with a relief of the borough arms and the inscriptions "Burgi De Portesmouth, Liberatum Limer" and "Anno Domini MDCCXCIX" (the latter is on the base). A bronze plaque reads "This stone marks the Boundary of the Borough of Portsmouth prior to the extension of 1832".
