Old Boundary Stone, Charfield/Kingswood

In the centre of the North side of Watsome Bridge on the Wotton Road, B4058. It marks the ancient and current boundary of Charfield and Kingswood (Gloucestershire) parishes, also on the modern boundary between Gloucestershire county and South Gloucestershire unitary authority. It is triangular in cross-section, fairly typical of this area. Kingswood was formerly a detached part of Wiltshire that was incorporated into Gloucestershire by the Counties (Detached Parts) Act 1844. Milestone Society National ID: GL_CHAKIN01pb

Welcome to South Gloucestershire - Please drive carefully

Alongside the B4058 Wotton Road viewed from Gloucestershire in July 2023. South Gloucestershire was created in 1996 to replace the Northavon district of the abolished county of Avon. It is separate from Gloucestershire County Council but remains part of the ceremonial county and shares Gloucestershire's Lord Lieutenant (the Sovereign's representative to the county).
