The stone is located by Norton Down Cottages, on the verge against the garden wall, on the south side of road. Parish of Stratton on the Fosse (Mendip District). Initially the stone was considered to be a first generation milestone erected by the Wells turnpike trust in the 18th century. However, there is no evidence to support this.
