St Mary's Church and milestone

St Mary's Church dates from 1858 and was built because the church on nearby Church Island was too small. The milestone dates from the early 19th century and was designed by Thomas Telford as part of his improved road to Holyhead across Anglesey. Both the church and the milestone are grade II listed - see http://cadwpublic-api.azurewebsites.net/reports/listedbuilding/FullReport?lang=en&id=18562 and http://cadwpublic-api.azurewebsites.net/reports/listedbuilding/FullReport?lang=en&id=18559 respectively.
