Buttery Stone is not unlike the Edgerley forest boundary stone, abuts the forest wall. It stands in the bank on the road that leads from the White Ladder across Kinsford Gate to Sandyway. This is the county boundary as well as the old forest boundary. This ran from the Saddle stone, past the Edgerley stone, Lewcombe stone, Horsehead stone, Buttery stone and to the lost Longstone at Sandyway. Possibly it was a prehistoric standing stone used as a medieval marker. It stands looking down the valley into a stream, as many prehistoric stones do. Not marked on the Explorer map.
