Summary[edit]

Description
English: "Bloody and inhuman murder" This stone at the side of the Sustrans Route 66 near Mytholmroyd commemorates a bloody episode in the Cragg Coiners story. It reminds us that in November 1769 the gang of counterfeiters shot Williiam Deighton, the investigating Excise officer, who was hot on their heels. The murderers were caught and executed. The carved inscription on the stone (beneath the depiction of a skeleton) is difficult to read but I think it says, "A true and full account of a barbarous, bloody and inhuman murder".
