This modern replacement Liverpool 2 Mile milepost stands alongside the towpath of the Leeds-Liverpool Canal, just south of the Bedford Place footbridge. The post is part of a project to replace missing mileposts along the entire length of the canal. However, although it is a convenient place for it to be located, it is approximately 100 metres north of where the original 2 Mile post stood, which is clearly shown on old maps close to grid reference SJ 3402 9419.
