Inscriptions on Moor Stones

A local resident recently contacted us after noticing some 'hidden' inscriptions on stone slabs on the moors. These stones can be found along the footpath between Egerton and Chapeltown, near the woodland on the southeast side of Cheetham Close. The inscriptions are difficult to make out, as two of the slabs lean against each other, with the lettering on the inward faces.
