Someone had an absolutely terrific idea! This Border Stane, on the Scottish/English border, has "Auld Lang Syne" by Robert Burns engraved on the Scottish side, and "Jerusalem" by William Blake on the English side. And you can look through the hole in the middle from England to Scotland or from Scotland to England!
