Inscription: SP (see below)

The 1838 tithe apportionment records nearly 80 acres of land in Uley, including land on the side of the Bury with the markers, was owned by Harry Keighly Peach (then a minor). It is possible that SP stands for Samuel Peach, who inherited land in Uley in 1776, or his son, Samuel, who inherited in 1791 (Bigland’s Monumental Inscriptions, which adds that “it was a small estate and now subdivided”), and that Harry’s land was previously theirs.
