Beating the Bounds, Lostwithiel, Cornwall. May 2000
Setting off through Coulson Park, to Beat the Bounds of Lostwithiel, this group will walk to all the boundary stones of the borough, about 17 miles, where John Pegg, will tap (beat) each participant with his stick. The last stone this group had to pass was on the river bank near Newham, south of the town, where they had to wade across the river to return to the town. In 1685, or thereabouts, granite stones were placed at prominent places on thoroughfares and crossing points at the periphery of the Lostwithiel Borough Boundary. Photographer: Jonathan Barker
