Description
Devon Cornwall boundary marker in the twin Cornish villages of Kingsand and Cawsand. The marker is a remnant from the days pre-1844 when Kingsand was in Devon.
The Counties (Detached Parts) Act 1844 which came into effect on 20 October 1844, was an Act of Parliament of the United Kingdom which eliminated many outliers or exclaves of counties in England and Wales for civil purposes.
