Marker Stone in Yorkshire (North)
A squared, slightly tapered C18 monolith about 5ft in height and made of sandstone. It is one of about ten such stones in a boundary line string that runs along Bransdale Ridge. It has the letter K (Kirkdale) engraved on its east face and H (Helmsley) on its west face.
This particular stone which is also grade II listed Entry Number 1149036 stands by a trail that originates in the Fangdale Beck area of Bilsdale and comes across Bilsdale East Moor. It no doubt will have been an important route between the dales in times past.
