Westernmost A-road sign in the UK
Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 22 Aug 2005
This is the last roadsign in the UK, travelling westwards from Belleek into Co. Donegal, Republic of Ireland. The green sign in the background has a noticeably different typeface (unclear here) – than that used on the UK's signage – and the distance to Ballyshannon is shown as 7 (kilometres) instead of 4 (miles).
