Bramham Jubliee 2002

Bramham Jubilee 2002
Picture of boulder stone seat celebrating to Jubilee of 2002 at Bramham cum Oglethorpe, near Leeds in Yorkshire.

Walking along a country lane from the village of Clifford towards an old windmill on a nearby hill which I wrongly thought was in the village turned out to actually be in Bramham the next village along.

The give away for me was the inscription on this large boulder adjacent to the roadway near the top of the hill and a short distance from the windmill. The inscription carved into the stone reads.. Bramham cum Oglethorpe Royal Jubilee 2002. The stone has carved into it a seat, so it is useful as well as being a way of marking the Jubilee of 2002.

The Bramham windmill can be seen if you look closely through the greenery of the hedge in the top left of the above picture.  I will give the story of the Bramham cum Oglethorpe windmill tomorrow here on the blog tomorrow.
