La Grosse Borne (Perwez)
La Grosse Borne (Perwez) submitted by Alta-Falisa : As Edg. Simons had it, the name is larger than the stone itself. May 2014. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Marker Stone in Brabant wallon.

An inscription, dated 1463, now much damaged (see photo), used to read : "Je faict le chesne Guillaume". It implies the presence of an oak, either as a limit of domain or a place to render justice.
Accessible by car.
