This is by the road side near Leckhampstead on Hangman's Lane which is the road to Boxford. There is a lane opposite where you can park.
It is on the boundaries of Boxford, Leckhampstead and Leckhampstead Parishes. It is a boundary marker but I prefer to think that it was already there and was used for convenience sake. It has been split in two and been repaired. There must be lots more of these about.
