Boundary marker, British Camp, Malvern The blue brick marker is bears the inscription MHC 159.
It was placed here by the Malvern Hills Conservators on the ridge of the hills in the saddle between Herefordshire Beacon and Millennium Hill.
The peak of the latter can be seen along the well worn ridge.
Just behind the marker and barely visible in this photo is a much older boundary stone in a somewhat sunken state.
If one looks carefully it is possible to see the levelled hut platforms of the iron-age town on the slopes of the hill side.
