Possible War Department Boundary Stone at Stanley Military Cemetery

Submitted by scottp on Wed, 2018-05-02 12:45

I saw what looks a lot like a War Department boundary stone at Stanley Military Cemetery yesterday, it's buried up to a point that no markings are visible. See picture, can anyone comment/confirm?

On 7 January 2018, I found a stone marker at Kai Kuk Shue 鷄谷樹 in the North East New Territories. 

It notes the year 丁未. 

I wonder which 丁未 year would that be and why?
