L for Lowther, landowner in Shap Rural parish to the north; the stone has been replaced the wrong way round.

The boundary stone was found hidden on the cairn nearby; it has been replaced to lean on the fence. Only the letter:-

remains on the broken piece. L for Lowther, not Longsleddale.
The boundary is a parish boundary between Longsleddale and Shap.
