The photograph on this page of The milepost outside The Bell by Richard Law as part of the Geograph project.

The Geograph project started in 2005 with the aim of publishing, organising and preserving representative images for every square kilometre of Great Britain, Ireland and the Isle of Man.

There are currently over 7.5m images from over 14,400 individuals and you can help contribute to the project by visiting https://www.geograph.org.uk

The 1:25,000 map marks this as a 'Cross'. I suspect the OS may have done so when it only consisted of a base and the lower stone of the pillar; the upper stone has recently been replaced on a new middle stone, and is marked with mileages to Shifnal, Wolverhampton, Newport and Brewood.
