Old milepost located on the A6 Antrim Road close to Sandyknowes roundabout. It simply states that Belfast is 6 miles away - no other destinations are mentioned. Mileposts from Belfast were measured from the "Four Corners" at the junction of Waring Street, North Street, Donegall Street and Bridge Street, a site later occupied by the Exchange and Assembly Rooms Image; see Image for a plaque on the building explaining this.
