ST7046 : A milestone in need of a trim

taken 4 years ago, near to Leigh Upon Mendip, Somerset, England

A milestone in need of a trim
A milestone in need of a trim
Lying beside the Old Wells Road is a milestone. It is missing almost all details, including the plate, and the stone itself has crumbled somewhat - all now covered by some lush vegetation. Formerly it would have read 'Wells 10, Frome 5'. It also should have a benchmark, although it may have been subject to the above constraints. It is listed in the Benchmark Database: LinkExternal link . See ST7046 : A hairy milestone for a location view.
