軍部界石由來及用途
於1841年1月26日駐港英軍登陸今上環水坑口(Possession Point),香港分成三階段割讓和租借予英國,分別是1842年簽訂《南京條約》割讓香港島;1860年簽訂《北京條約》割讓九龍半島(今界限街以南)和1898年簽訂《展拓香港界址專條》租借新界。
軍需部(Board of Ordnance) 於1845年完成香港第一份軍用測量地圖《The Ordnance Map of Hong Kong – Lieut. Collinson.R.E 1845》

軍用界石是指 劃定一幅軍事土地的界線的測量標誌,一般會使用白花崗岩或混凝土板造成,以劃定一幅土地的界線的界線標誌。香港軍事用地,以War Department Lot (WDL) 軍部地段稱呼。海軍則使用Admiralty Lot (AL)1968年後改以 Ministry of Defence Lot (MODL)及現在軍事用地使用Defence Lot (DL)
香港軍部界石的演變
最早期1845年 主要軍營位置 是 Sai Wan Barracks (1844落成) Chek Choo (Stanley) Barracks(1844落成)及 Victoria Cantonment (1850s) 現在已發現刻有BO界石有四粒!
1)西灣山頂 (西灣軍營界石 1845年前)
2)赤柱聖士提反灣 (舊赤柱軍營界石 1845年前)
3)文輝道 山頂 (1888?)
暫時香港最大軍部界石群組,以西高山/松林炮台發現界石最多,共 25 粒!而且應該有更多嘅空間。
香港的軍用界石,按照不同年份及不同位置,略有不同。就算同一時期,亦會有所分別!
