<div id="ygrps-yiv-1737038523">From the topo map, it looks as though the county boundary has been<br/>
altered in modern times to conform to the northeast margin of the A-1<br/>
expressway&#39;s right-of-way.  Notice how it bulges to include the jug<br/>
handles at the interchanges and the slopes of the cuts.  Of course, this<br/>
doesn&#39;t diminish whatever political reality the quadripoint has.  It<br/>
does mean, though, that it&#39;s vastly more likely to be demarcated by a<br/>
modern highway survey marker placed by civil servants than by an ancient <br/>
and curiously inscribed rock placed by Druids.<br/>

&gt;&gt; &gt; Interesting as they may be, county boundaries in<br/>

&gt;<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;&gt; yet<br/>
&gt;&gt; within england<br/>
&gt;&gt; what could qualify as more major state lines than<br/>
&gt; these<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt; or to rephrase the question<br/>
&gt; are the county boundaries not the most major lines of<br/>
&gt; state that exist in england<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt; & or<br/>
&gt; isnt the unique cmlinarl quadricounty point of england<br/>
&gt; her most major multipoint<br/>
&gt; as well as the most major multipoint of all britannia<br/>
&gt; if not also of the entire uk for that matter<br/>
&gt; save eez tripoints & the south pole<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt; & i really do need help on this positive<br/>
&gt; identification because i want to make the best & most<br/>
&gt; & truest of it<br/>
&gt; so as to fairly inspire someone to actually go & check<br/>
&gt; it out on the ground<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt; for it amazes me to find this point has been so<br/>
&gt; overlooked<br/>
&gt; if not to say so assiduously ignored<br/>
&gt; in a country that so prizes & enshrines her every<br/>
&gt; geographical marker & detail<br/>
