Border stone

I decided to upgrade a map app on my phone to a paid version to get some features I have use for, like having property boundaries on the map and saving tracks. Did it after lunch and went looking for a border stone, that I had not been able to locate in a long time, and to mark the border between it and the nearest road in the woods. It seemed that the GPS was several metres off today, but I suppose this is the stone.

Border corners are now marked with orange metal cubes on top of a pipe, but earlier stones were used, often split, with a number chiseled on them. Despite splitting, they can be hard to find after 100 years among other stones with moss on top. This should have number 7 on it, and I can see two possible markings, more clearly on the image than on the spot.

I had about an hour before my phone connection was to be moved to another service provider. I thought it would be plenty, but I had to go back and forth the 150 metre long borderline several times before being relatively sure I had it marked correctly. I had the map already on the phone, so I think it would have worked without connection, but I came home, when the subscription was supposed to be changed. The old one stopped working when it was supposed to, but I had to wait four hours for the new one to connect! It was supposed to be 10 minutes.
