Border Post — A small marker structure (a post, stone or sign) standing at the edge of a village's territory. It marks the boundary and greets visitors ('welcomes visitors and warns them to behave'). Nobody is stationed there. The Corner and Entrance variants stand at the corners and at the entrance of the village boundary. The Norman French name 'Borne' (boundary stone) reflects the intent; the generic French 'Poste frontière' is ambiguous.

Undvik: Words meaning a checkpoint, guard post, police or customs station, or a national frontier post.
