An old granite finger post at Hendraburnick Down on the A39. The OS appears to have this recorded as a gatepost, but the faint inscriptions seem to be place names. The only one I am certain about is 'LAN/SON' for Launceston, although another may be STRAT/TON. The original markers are gone. At the base is an OS cut mark.
