This early 19th century boundary stone is situated at the SE corner of the grounds of the former Donaldson's Hospital, about 1m from the modern pavement on the N side of West Coates, where it has been incorporated into a later stone wall. Round-headed in profile, the sandstone marker measures 0.36m in breadth by 0.5m in height. On the date of visit the marker, which stands behind a police box, was partly obscured by a pile of rubbish, but the incised letters 'D H' were visible on its E face.
