This marker stone was sent to us by Chris Twigg of the invaluable Hidden Teesside website and found by David Thompson. It can be found by the River Tees, close to Teessaurus Park.
It’s the work of Vivien Mousdell & Victoria Brailsford as part of the ‘Marking the Ways’ project. We’re in contact with Vivien (thanks to Mike Pratt), and hope to be in touch with Victoria too.
We’ll update the article soon.
Showing a ship atop waves, the stone bears the following inscription:

SWIM TO THE

A fish is carved within the waves.
