This Dover boundary marker, referred to as a 'Pepper' stone, was one of a series of 'new' boundary stones set around the town's boundary by Mayor of Dover Matthew Pepper in 1895-6.

Many are still visible around Dover, this one sits outside the fence of the former Connaught Barracks, alongside the coach park, opposite Upper Road in Dover.
