Background
(November 25, 2025) Macalister reports that this stone was found laying in the churchyard beside the south porch broken into two pieces. It had previously been built, upside down, into the wall of an old house near the west end of the church. It is now inside the building set upon a modern stone base at the west end of the S. aisle.

Bleu Bridge Runestone 462 - Gulval Parish, Cornwall


Background
Macalister reports that this stone was standing at the end of a foot - bridge called Blue (otherwise Blew or Bleu) Bridge crossing a small stream. It is on the right bank of the stream and the inscription is on the side facing it. This was cut and rubbed, but is worn and clogged with lichen. In Borlase's time the stone served as the bridge, which sufficiently accounts for its worn condition. He gives its total length then as 7' 9".
It is made from a block of granite being 4' 11" x 1' 9 1/2″ × 0' 10". Scheduled Date: 30 November 1926, Source ID: 1006727, English Heritage Legacy ID: CO 38

Du Ya Ḫu Wa. IṢu Ya Ḫu USu
Pu Wa ENu. ATu AWu Ku IKu
In English
Don't manifest Hu's restrictions. Don't make scarce Hu's normal-behavior
The Opener (Selu/Selene) can restrict the reassignments. Monitor the motion-powers' involvement with the irrigation network (life network of Hu).
Comment: Hu is the sun and storm god. When cursed Hu is causing a drought by withholding rain. Hu also represents the life network (irrigation network) through which the fertility-fluids (life powers) flow and are assigned to the proper places on earth to manifest life. The celestial light goddess Selene represents the motion powers of the stars and planets and so defines fate. This text is saying that her powers are the one's inhibiting life's correct assignments/manifestations on earth. Therefore use divination to monitor those powers.
