Summary

Description
English: "Murder Stone" The stone records "William Wood, Eyam, Derbyshire - here murdered July 16th, 1823" as far as I can make out. Apparently, he was driving his cattle to market when he was set upon.
  • errata* The story of his murder makes no mention of him driving cattle, rather he was returning from market with sums of money, he was effectively mugged and murdered.
      • I suggest you look at the later, better quality image if you want to be able to read the inscription.
