This milestone first appears on old maps in 1898 and has been badly damaged since then. It stands right on the edge of the B5126 road, near Bryn-Gwyn Lane, and is mostly buried in the grass verge. According to the maps the inscription once read 'Queensferry 3¼ Mold 5', and it is just possible to make out a figure '5' on the right hand side of the stone. It can just be seen in situ in Image and Image Milestone Society National ID: FLT_MDQF05A
